Here are a few water-saving tips we\u2019ve put together to have a water-wise holiday in Cape Town.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Eco-Friendly Accommodation<\/h2>\n<p>When booking accommodation, choose to stay in a hotel or lodge that actively supports water conservation.<\/p>\n<p>For some great eco-friendly accommodation within the city, we highly recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/hotels.travelstart.com\/ho335388\/?pa=1&amp;tab=description&amp;q-room-0-adults=2&amp;YGF=7&amp;MGT=3&amp;WOE=5&amp;WOD=2&amp;ZSX=0&amp;SYE=3&amp;q-room-0-children=0\">Ocean View Guesthouse<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/hotels.travelstart.com\/ho460243\/?q-check-out=2017-12-06&amp;tab=description&amp;q-room-0-adults=2&amp;YGF=14&amp;q-check-in=2017-12-04&amp;MGT=2&amp;WOE=3&amp;WOD=1&amp;ZSX=0&amp;SYE=3&amp;q-room-0-children=0\">The Backpack<\/a>.

Not only are these places beautifully set amongst nature, you\u2019ll feel better about staying there and playing <em>your<\/em> part in conserving the city\u2019s water. These places do fill up quickly, so book in advance!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-64409 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/oceanview2.jpg\" alt=\"water-saving tips cape town\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64083 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/teniqua-treehouse.jpg\" alt=\"water-saving tips cape town\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Seas\u2019 the Day<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest, you haven\u2019t come all the way to Cape Town to stay cooped up in your hotel room, right? Instead of splashing around in the hotel pool, pack a beach bag and head down to Camps Bay, Clifton or any of the <a href=\"https:\/\/travelstartstg.wpenginepowered.com\/our-top-ten-beaches-in-cape-town-and-durban\/\">incredible beaches<\/a> right on your doorstep. Make a day of it and throw in some frisbee, volleyball and bask away in the warm, golden sun. This is one water-saving tip everyone can enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64080 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/stevedevilliers.jpg\" alt=\"water-saving tips cape town\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Fill Up on the Go<\/h2>\n<p>Did you know that it takes six times as much water to produce a plastic water bottle than the water it actually holds? Avoid buying plastic bottles and rather invest in a good quality BPA-free or glass bottle that you can reuse. South Africa\u2019s municipal water is perfectly safe to drink, so fill up at your hotel before heading out for the day. Then again, you are in the region\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/travelstartstg.wpenginepowered.com\/wine-farms-around-cape-town-2\/\">wine capital<\/a>, so why not save water and drink wine instead! Sauvignon Blanc, anyone?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64082 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/zuzkalight.jpg\" alt=\"water-saving tips cape town\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Don\u2019t Throw in the Towel<\/h2>\n<p>Instead of leaving your towels on the bathroom floor, hang them up and reuse them. Most hotels change laundry items every day, but you\u2019ll be saving a lot of water by reusing the same towel for a few days. The same goes for laundry if your accommodation has this facility. Rather wait until you\u2019ve accumulated enough laundry for a full wash, instead of washing a few items at a time.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64079 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/southernstitchesbysarah.jpg\" alt=\"water-saving tips cape town\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Shower Time<\/h2>\n<p>While many of us love soaking in a relaxing bubble-bath after a long day of sightseeing, this is a big no-no and many hotels advise their guests against taking baths. Filling a bath uses around 80 litres of water, while a 2-minute shower uses around 16-20 litres (depending on the shower head). Taking short showers is a vital water-saving tip, since our daily limit is 87 litres. And who has time for long, steamy baths in summer anyway, when you really should be outdoors enjoying the vibrant nightlife!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64074 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/covetandcravenz.jpg\" alt=\"water-saving tips cape town\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Don\u2019t Sweat It<\/h2>\n<p>Dress comfortably to keep your body cool and avoid overheating. Loose-fitting clothing and cotton are essentials to ensure you stay comfortable. If you find the heat getting a bit much, the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens and the forests scattered along the slopes of Table Mountain are great places to cool down and enjoy a picnic in the shade.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64073 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/babyweeattoomuch.jpg\" alt=\"water-saving tips cape town\" width=\"800\" height=\"599\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Cape Town is the ultimate hotspot for local and international holiday-makers, seeing many flocking to its shores over the festive season. \u00a0There are an endless amount of sights and <a href=\"https:\/\/travelstartstg.wpenginepowered.com\/adventure-cape-town\/\">adventures<\/a> that this incredible city offer has to offer.
