Miller's Point, Coastal headland and beach in Simon's Town, South Africa.

Miller's Point extends between mountain and sea along the coastal road, featuring large granite boulders and protected coves along False Bay.

Edmund Miller established a whaling station at this location in 1825, operating for 25 years until the practice was prohibited in the region.

The former Molteno family residence now functions as a restaurant, marking the transformation of this maritime site into a recreational destination.

The area contains two boat launch facilities, a tidal pool with a water slide, and designated spaces for picnics near the shoreline.

Between July and November, southern right whales gather with their calves in two deep pools just north of the point.
