I am ending an African Safari with 5 days in Cape Town
The safari is a dream come true but I will also enjoy exploring Cape Toen
I would like some local jewellery and also some clothing

all suggestions greatly appreciated.

The place i visited most recently was The Watershed which is at the V&A dock and is a warehouse with lots of artisan shops selling lots of off-beat interesting things and handicrafts. I bought some nice bracelets, ceramics and spices. Members of our group bought blankets and tea. One vendor preferred cash but they do accept contactless.
Just a note, the weather was truly appalling - the rain was torrential a few weeks ago.
If the weather is bad - then Table Mountain cable car won't be running and Robben Island is closed to visitors for refurbishment until 1st Sept.
FYI there are a few decent inexpensive gift shops at the airport.
