There is no national health care scheme in South Africa, so it is wise to purchase a good travel insurance. No vaccinations are required for cholera or smallpox, but if arriving from a yellow fever zone, you must have a valid international yellow fever inoculation certificate. There is no malaria in Cape Town. Tap water is considered relatively safe to drink in some areas but is generally not recommended. For a more detailed overview of Cape Town or South Africa health requirements and medical care I recommend reading our practical and all-inclusive guide, Passport To The Best Of Cape Town - South Africa
