Does anyone recognize this port?

I'm trying to identify this for our local WWII museum. The picture was taken in the late 1940s from a cruiser (of the big gun variety), probably in the Med.

Thanks.

Related issue: Can anyone tell me how to make photos appear in a post on the forum? My computer skills are not of this generation.

Thanks.

It looks like Table Mountain, Cape Town.

Addendum:

It is Cape Town from the sea. The breakwater hasn't changed - see https://goo.gl/maps/sd2jhEHaVN3zVxMP7

Zanshin, thanks so much! It's a hit! Capetown was on the route of the cruiser in question.
