Cape Agulhas
About the area
This seaside town is more than just another gem along South Africa’s southern coastline, it happens to be the southernmost point of the African continent, and the place where the Atlantic and Indian oceans meet. The town itself is actually called L'Agulhas and is both geographically and culturally significant. Discoveries of stone fish traps, pottery, and hearths have been dated back to the Khoisan people. This town’s rich natural diversity of fynbos and rocky cliffs are almost as hypnotising as the endless geographical beauties you’ll witness.
