"Gap Park has spectacular views of both the harbour and the ocean. At Gap Park, there is a remembrance to Lieutenant Grieve, a Special Service Officer who was killed in February 1900 at the Battle of Paardeberg. When we visited, it was raining and we could have only limited look around. Though it appears to be beautiful place."

"Such great place to see nice view. Can understood why the name of this location is gap park."
"Beautiful view. The sandstone cliffs are amazing. Sad that it's a place where people who have depression issues come to jump off the cliffs. They do have lots of security cameras and also direct phone lines for help at the location."
