Go treasure hunting at Milnerton Flea Market

Rummage through rows of antiques, records, furniture, tools and wonderfully random junk at Cape Town’s proper old-school flea market — where half the fun is not knowing what you'll find, with Table Mountain watching from across the bay.

BEFORE YOU GO
The market is completely outdoors and weather dependent, so check conditions before heading out. Go early for the best finds — and don't be afraid to bargain. Current hours are generally Saturday 08:00–14:00 and Sunday 08:00–15:00, although some sources say trading starts around 07:00–07:30.
