About Us

Welcome to Sunset Books, a quaint and enchanting independent bookstore and tea-room, nestled by the gentle waves of the ocean at Strand in the Western Cape.  Our story begins with a dream that has been cherished for a lifetime and brought to life by the passionate owner, Udine Joubert and her unwavering love for literature and the soothing power of tea.

Step through our doors and allow yourself to be embraced by the comforting scent of freshly brewed tea and coffee and the timeless allure of pre-loved books that line our shelves.  Here, you will find a carefully curated collection of literary treasures, ranging from classic novels to contemporary bestsellers, from poetry collections to thought-provoking non-fiction.

Our aim is to create a sanctuary where bookworms, dreamers and wanderers can find solace and inspiration.  Lose yourself in the pages of a gripping novel as the sea breeze whispers through your thoughts or engage in meaningful conversations with fellow book lovers who share your insatiable appetite for knowledge and tea.
