Painting Tips for Camps Bay and Mouille Point

Camps Bay and Mouille Point are two of the Atlantic Seaboard's most iconic addresses - Camps Bay with its wide white beach and glamorous streetscape, Mouille Point with its lighthouse and beachside promenade. Both face intense ocean exposure and require the best available coastal paint products and maintenance practices.

Camps Bay's Intense Conditions

Camps Bay beach is directly exposed to the south-easterly - the famous wind that makes the beach attractive to sunbathers also drives salt spray onto every beachfront property. Properties within two or three rows of the beach face Atlantic-level salt air exposure. Premium exterior paint with enhanced moisture resistance is essential. Paint only in the early morning or late afternoon in summer - never in active south-easterly conditions.

Mouille Point's Promenade Exposure

Mouille Point's promenade-facing properties are directly exposed to the Atlantic swell and spray at high tide. The famous lighthouse endures these conditions, but residential properties along the promenade face some of the most intense salt spray conditions on the Atlantic Seaboard. Annual inspection and immediate touch-up of any metal surface damage is the minimum maintenance standard. See our anti-rust guide.
