Mariner's Wharf, Maritime emporium in Hout Bay, South Africa
Mariner's Wharf spans a waterfront complex with restaurants, markets, and shops situated between the beach and harbor entrance of Hout Bay.
Stanley Dorman established Mariner's Wharf in 1984 as South Africa's first harbor front emporium, transforming his family's fishing business into a commercial center.
The emporium maintains authentic maritime elements through its architecture, featuring historical boats, nautical artifacts, and traditional fishing equipment throughout the premises.
The Wharfside Grill restaurant seats 350 guests, while the ground floor houses a fresh fish market, bakery, and specialized shops for antiques and jewelry.
Private dining cabins within the establishment offer direct views of fishing boats entering Hout Bay harbor and beach activities along the coast.
