The Cape Town International Kite Festival is celebrating its 30th year, with participants travelling from the United States, Tunisia and elsewhere.
They ranged from seasoned pros to children who skipped down the sand with kites fluttering above them.
The festival raises awareness for mental health and provides a burst of beachside colour.
Kite designs included Finding Nemo-inspired fish, blue dragons, yellow lizards and a wiggly green jellyfish. One inventive entrant was a kite in the shape of a skydiver. Another was a giant hand that flew above spectators, waving in the wind.
