Morgan Nott
"Embarking on an adventure to Cape of Good Hope National Park is an absolute blast! The journey begins with a scenic drive that treats you to jaw-dropping views of the rugged coastline & pristine beaches. Don't forget to snap a photo at the iconic sign marking the most southwesterly point of the African continent—it's a must for your album of unforgettable memories!
Next up, lace up your hiking boots for a trek to the old Cape Point Lighthouse. The views from up there? Simply breathtaking! Imagine soaking in panoramic ocean vistas while uncovering the history of this historic lighthouse, which stood as a crucial lookout during World War II. It's nature & history coming together in one epic experience!
After all that exploration, kick back & recharge at the park's restaurant or grab a bite at the takeaway café. Indulge in delicious local treats while soaking in the scenery. It's the perfect way to wrap up a day filled with adventure and discovery at Cape of Good Hope National Park!"

"Das Kap der Guten Hoffnung ist an sich nur ein Schild, ich muss ehrlicherweise sagen, dass ich ein bisschen enttäuscht war aber dennoch ist es ein Besuch wert! Haltet auf jeden Fall beim Weg zum Schild bei dem Strand so ca. 1km vorher an und geht dort ein bisschen schlendern. Der Wellengang ist sehr stark aber man hat das Gefühl in der unberührten Natur zu sein.
Vom Schild aus, gibt es auch die Möglichkeit, nach oben zum Leuchtturm zu laufen. Der Weg dorthin dauert ca. 1,5h. "

"Make this the first stop of the day because you have a lot to explore here. It’s an iconic spot where everyone take the mandatory picture! It gets too windy, wear your windcheater or jacket."
