Anyone been to Capetown

[tonyg]

Looking for recommendations for an area cigar shop.

We were in South Africa a few years back and flew home from Capetown. We visited a shopping center but have no memory of a cigar shop there.

I spent 4 or 5 days in Capetown in 1993, but I do not remember anything about a tobacco shop. I do remember that the beaches on the Indian ocean side have water that is nice and warm, but the water on the Atlantic side is ice cold, however if you are looking for beach "scenery" then it is the Atlantic side beaches like Clifton that are the places to go. Also the Capetown beaches do not have the shark problem that the Durban beaches do farther up the coast.
