it has a beautiful surrounding but for me it`s too cold !
I prefer water temp. around 30°C and air temp. around 40°C !
I know that is a little strange but it`s the truth, sorry.

I am planning a trip next year.

I started putting together an itinerary 2 years ago to visit Cape Town but never decided upon it.

I am probably gonna do it in 2012, any suggestions on what month is best to arrive there?

Oh, you are most welcom to visit. You will not be dissappointed! Check out the South African Forum. The guys there are like family and will support you with any questions.
Best time to visit depends on what you like. If crowds & partying is your thing, than December/January are great. It calms down from February (hottest month). The weather is great up until June. Eventhough the Winter is mild, it does rain a lot.
The off-season ( non- Xmas/New Year & Easter) is the best if you like the beaches for yourself. Things are also cheaper then. Also Oct-Dec is great when it gets warmer and things build up for the end of year.

Ive been to Barcelona twice and it does have a better night life I concur (but VERY pricey in comparison), and Barca does not match with its nature offerings. It's beaches are also rather bland.
