Parklands is a fast growing residential suburb of the
Bloubergstrand area. Although not right next to the beach, it is close to the attractions of Blouberg, but separated by Tableview and Sunningdale, and west coast access roads.
The long sandy beaches of Blouberg are popular for kitesurfing, wind surfing, jetskiing, and long beach walks. Also popular is nearby Rietvlei Nature reserve with bird hides and nature trails.
Parklands is close to many large shopping malls, restaurants, and golf courses.
Parklands is characteristed by townhouses and apartments, on the new access route for the
MyCiTi bus transport from Bloubergstrand to the city centre.
