June kicks off winter with cool 63°F highs, 49°F lows, and 10 rain days. The peninsula gets its characteristic stormy weather, but clear days between fronts offer crisp air and spectacular views. The V&A Waterfront and the historic Robben Island ferry rides benefit from warm layers; one visitor pain point is the relentless wind combined with rain that can soak through inadequate outerwear on the exposed waterfront and mountain paths.
