Woodbridge Island (original) (raw)
Woodbridge Island, Blaauwberg
Situated just 15 minutes from Cape Town�s city centre, surrounded by a lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean is Woodbridge Island, an upmarket, 24-hour high security complex connected to the mainland only by a modern road bridge.
As you enter Woodbridge Island, the security gates open and you know you have come to the right place. All guests are announced by phone to your home before admittance. In Woodbridge Island all homes have picturesque views of Table Mountain or the gorgeous lagoon.
There is plenty to do right here. One can simply explore the island and marvel at the exquisite gardens and beautiful views. There are 3 superb swimming pools where endless days of sun tanning and relaxing can take place.
Woodbridge Island�s lagoon is a popular canoeing and bird watching destination. The beach is immaculate boasting warm white sands and fantastic waves. Here, many enjoy kite or wind surfing. There are plenty of fantastic restaurants, shops and boutiques to keep you occupied. On Woodbridge Island, the dunes have been preserved and allowed to form their natural contours. Ecology has played an important role and all conservation is kept protected.
2 bridges join Woodbridge Island to the mainland of Milnerton proper. The island is named after the Wooden Bridge. This wooden bridge is now a national heritage site and, although was once used for general traffic, is only used for pedestrians. A newer bridge allows cars to cross to the island. Woodbridge Island is hidden and secured from the world. Here, an upmarket and luxurious lifestyle is enjoyed by many.
