Fascinating outline of the most prominent historical naval figures and ships associated with Simons Town. The awesome Nuisance, the heart-rending sinking of the SS Mendi and the canons all make for an informative few minutes and some good photographs.

Really stunning place to take a few pics with Able Seaman Just Nuisance for those who are fans of Naval history and memorabilia. Instgrammable pictures with blue skies, yachts, mountains and deep Lapis sea in the background.

This place has a great vibe. There is wonderful, creative and clever handwork which makes great souvenirs or gifts. The views of the harbour are really picturesque. There are a couple of great places to eat at or just for a coffee. The parking area is always full, so you may have to find parking else where. The paving is quite bumpy plus there are stairs or different levels which make it not wheelchair accessible.

Very touristy place with several eateries with a good view of the sea and naval yard. Also has some souvenir shops and the statue of Just Nuisance.On Saturdays there is a craft market.

An adorable little treasure in Simons Town. Little stalls with curios and restaurants make this spot a must visit for anyone in the area. Our family enjoyed reading about the towns history on the wall a couple of meters outside the square and the view at the dock is incredible.

Every time I come to Simonstown I am amazed by how well preserved the history of the town is. It is clean and well kept. The Jubilee square market is great. There are many things to see and many restaurants to dine at. One of my favorite places in the whole of South Africa.

Clean and the parking was well organised.The traders were not quite to my liking but probably interests international tourists i.e curios.Keep plastic, electric/electronic gadgets and cheap imports away, is a must.Information Centre was handy, directed us quickly and politely to the Town Hall and the Toy Museum/Shop.Pity about the pollution in the water, noticed it almost everywhere along the coastline.

Safe place to leave your vehicle, and central to the town. From here you can explore the whole town, North and South by foot, and not worry about your four wheels. Restaurants and Museums are nearby. Just Nuisance, the Naval Dog has an honorary spot here on this square.

This was such a unique experience. I had a breather before I had to go into a huge meeting. This inspired my mindset. I will advise anyone who need rustic settings and peace of mind.

Lovely place to see the ocean. A port for sailors and Fishermen. The square has a wonderful arts and crafts market as well where you can by hand crafted African goods. Across the way you can find some unique stores and small cafes.
