List of Cape Town suburbs

This is a list of suburbs in the city of Cape Town, in South Africa.

Each suburb is followed by its postcode. The first code is for street deliveries, the second, where applicable, refers to PO boxes. Some suburbs share the same postcode.

In South Africa, the term "suburb" does not necessarily mean "residential area on the edge of a city"; rather, it is used synonymously with neighbourhood to refer to the smallest geographical subdivision of the city.

South Peninsula

The South Peninsula is generally regarded as the area south of Muizenberg on the Indian Ocean and Noordhoek on the Atlantic Ocean, all the way to Cape Point. Until recently quite rural, the population of the area is growing quickly as new coastal developments proliferate and larger plots are subdivided to provide more compact housing.
