Fodor's Expert Review Harbour House

Built on the breakwater of a working harbor, this iconic seafood restaurant has an unbeatable location—waves are known to crash against the huge plate-glass windows at high tide and many tables literally feel perched over the sea. Large, light filled, and orchid adorned, this jaw-droppingly beautiful space of white wood and lots of decking makes the perfect place to enjoy fresh seafood. The fish of the day is usually a reliable choice, with angelfish, kingklip, and tuna often available. Other dishes that rely more on the freshness of the seafood (oysters and calamari) than the brilliance of the chef will also surely satisfy. Accompaniments may be a disappointment, though, considering the prices, which are high by local standards (visitors enjoying good exchange rates might not even notice). However, the view really does make up for a lot. There's also a tempting dessert list.  If you're looking for something a bit more casual and affordable, try sister restaurant Live Bait, which is just downstairs, makes great fish & chips and other seafood combos, and is privy to the same great view.
