About Us


Started in 2020, the Beach Hut Trust was formed as a collaboration between private residents, local businesses and city representatives to establish a group to look after the Beach Huts in Muizenberg and surrounds that have been falling into disrepair for some time.

The trust aims to create social and economic opportunity for the local community through the Save Our Beach Hut campaign and restore and maintain these iconic structures for many years to come.

Help us to protect Cape Town's most iconic structures.

We are partnering with local businesses to create merchandise inspired by Cape Town's most iconic structures. The Beach Huts.

We hope to inspire local traders and craftsmen to adopt the image and make it part of their work. The more it is used, the better the chances of saving them.

If you have or would like to create Beach Hut inspired products and list them on our shop, please get in touch with us.

Proceeds of the sale of these products go towards supporting the Save Our Beach Hut campaign.

The East Beach huts are looking stunning! There is a fence around still because it is an active building site. The huts will all be completed by the first week in December, in time for a bumper summer season!

Following a suggestion earlier today - we will be honouring Breast Cancer Awareness Month by painting the two single huts that stand sentry on Muizenberg beach 💌𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐤💌!

Please come and join us - bring a paintbrush, if you have one and we will provide the paint. 𝗡𝗕 ...As it is a working construction site, we will all need to be inducted by Health and Safety and wear Protective gear.

Meet us at the Beach huts at 𝟭𝟬𝗮𝗺 𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟯𝗿𝗱 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿. Wear suitable painting clothes with a splash of pink if possible. Bring a hat and a water bottle. Let us know in the comments if you are able to join us.

There still is a lot of work to be done, but once these huts are painted, they will look amazing. The build quality is excellent.

What colour should this first hut be? ❤️💙💛💚
