Parklands is a suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. It is located within the greater Blouberg area, bordered by Table View and is part of the Western Seaboard residential district.

Parklands is one of the fastest-growing residential developments in the Western Cape. It is characterised by lower-density suburban areas and higher-density apartment block areas; the latter are largely inhabited by African diaspora residents.[2][3]
