Tucked away by the serene shoreline of Strand in the Western Cape, Sunset Books is more than an independent bookstore — it’s a vibrant hub for literary events, creative networking, and high tea with a twist (though we’ll admit, we’re a bit more partial to a great cup of coffee).

Founded by Udine Joubert, whose lifelong love of literature and connection inspires everything we do, the space has grown into a cozy yet dynamic gathering place. Whether you’re browsing our shelves of carefully curated pre-loved books — from timeless classics to bold new voices — or joining us for a poetry evening, writing workshop, or lively book club, you’ll always find something to spark the imagination.

Let the aroma of freshly brewed coffee welcome you in, and stay for the stories, the connections, and the conversations that linger long after the last page is turned.
