Sandwich is not a top tourist destination compared to other
Cape towns, which means its local attractions are often
less crowded and easier to take advantage of even during
the summer months. Heritage Museum and Gardens is not
too far from the town center and throughout the season
as flowers bloom, different festivities and events take
place. Even in the winter, everything is wrapped in lights in
the most magical way during Gardens Aglow. Of course,
this coastal town is also home to the spectacular Town
Neck Beach, where beachgoers can walk across the town
boardwalk.
