For over 150 years, the notorious “Cape of Storms” has been dominated by the famous Cape Agulhas Light House which guides the ships around its treacherous continental shelve. It must be one of the most photographed light houses in the world and we also succumbed to its appeal, Guy having found a good spot from the pebble beach nearby.
The southernmost tip of the African continent is the official meeting point of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans and the point of convergence of the Mozambique and Benguela currents. Along the gradually curving coastline you will discover few sandy beaches and many fascinating rocky beaches where the tide rolls the stones onto themselves creating the most riveting sounds.
Dominated by fog and mist, the weather was not friendly during our visit but the longer we explored the area the more we discovered its particular charm and made the most of the few clearer opportunities we got for a sunset or superb last sunrise.
