Soccer Fever in Cape Town. The Worldcup 2010 will bring loads of soccer fans and tourists to the Mother City in June. But even if you are not the biggest soccer fan, June is a good time to be in Cape Town. There is lots do, no matter if the sun is shining or it is pouring outside. If it is raining and grey, don’t worry the sun will be out soon again. 
Cape Town is known for its "moody" weather in winter . The windy days are maybe not for sunbathing, but the wildness of the coastline is something you have to experience. Watch how fast the clouds accumulate or disperse over the ocean and take in one of the most stunning sunsets you will ever see like this one on the right below which we experienced in June in Cape Town.
And enjoy the great outdoors. Now it’s the time to go hiking and enjoy the nature. Everything turns green after a day of rain and the lakes like Flamingo Vlei near Tableview are again alive with birds, local and foreign, foremost our beautiful pink flamingoes. In June there are beside the Worldcup which will slow down business when the city gets cut off for the fans, some public holidays and there will be school holidays too. So plenty of time you can spend with your families.
