It is practically the end of the world in South Africa, but it is not the southernmost point of Africa. For that you have to go to Cape Aguhlas, 130 km away. World famous, it was incredible to be at this mythical spot!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p id=\"viewer-74qf3\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie ljrnk blog-post-text-font blog-post-text-color _2QAo- _25MYV _1Fao9 ljrnk public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">To get to Cape Point, we did a one-day loop by car from west to east, to discover the must-sees of the Peninsula from Cape Town. We drove along the <\/span><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">Atlantic Ocean before arriving at the Cape Peninsula National Park, renamed <strong>Table Mountain National Park<\/strong>, which now covers <span title=\"77 700 000 m\u00b2 ou 77,7 km\u00b2\">7,770<\/span> hectares. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>You need to devote at least one whole day to exploring the Cape

People come here for the popular Hout Bay Beach, which is sheltered from the wind and attracts many locals, but above all to see or swim with the sea lions. <strong>Hout Bay Market<\/strong> is held every Sunday morning. Go early because it&#8217;s very busy, but it&#8217;s a pleasant place to have breakfast or lunch on your return from a cruise.

If you&#8217;re a keen horse rider, this is the place to be. Imagine galloping along an immense beach of fine white sand, your hair blowing in the wind, without a single tourist in sight! You&#8217;ll need to get there by car, as there is no local bus service. <strong>Misty Cliffs<\/strong> beach is impressive for its wave rollers! It&#8217;s a popular beach for surfers, but it&#8217;s also the most closely watched because of the many white sharks that roam around!<\/p>\r\n<p>For those who love to pedal, you can cycle this

In reality, the Cape of Good Hope is far less impressive than Cape Point, which is truly breathtaking, but it&#8217;s worth going to both places because the scenery is magnificent. At Cape Point, you can walk up to the Old Lighthouse for a panoramic view (20-minute ascent on an easy path) or take the funicular with the &#8220;Flying Dutchman&#8221; for 50R\/p. If you take the path that leads to the second lighthouse, you may see southern right whales below if you&#8217;re lucky. Keep an eye out!<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;.citation-bis&#8221;]Do you know why it&#8217;s called the Cape of Good Hope? Well, because the sailors hoped they&#8217;d still be alive and able to round the Cape, as the seas were often very rough. At the time, they thought there was no land left![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Cape Peninsula is part of the Table Mountain National Park. There is an entrance fee and walking routes can be purchased from the Visitor Centre. Allow a good full day to visit this place and enjoy the peninsula with its many beaches. If you&#8217;re lucky, you may see the ostrich family that inhabit these deserted beaches.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are some very nice walks to do, such as the one between <strong>Cape Point and the Cape of Good Hope<\/strong> (park at Cape Point instead, as the car park is much larger), as well as <strong>the GifKommetjie walk<\/strong>, which is a little more popular. There is virtually no difficulty and little change in altitude, so allow 2 hours while taking time to take photos.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\"

The special thing about Hermanus Bay is that the whales can be seen very easily from the shore, as they swim back and forth along the coast. To maximise your chances of seeing them without disturbing them, head for Cliff Path, an accessible tarmac path located to the west of the town centre. Don&#8217;t forget to take a picnic, water, binoculars and a good telephoto lens with you to capture these precious moments in time. Be patient and don&#8217;t be disappointed if you don&#8217;t see them, as they are wild animals and nothing is guaranteed, even in high season!<\/p>\r\n<p>To get there, allow around 1 hour 30 minutes&#8217; drive from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mademoiselle-voyage.fr\/en\/what-to-do-in-cape-town\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Cape Town<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u27a1\ufe0f <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/hermanus-l956\/hermanus-whale-and-dolphin-watching-boat-trip-t156720\/?partner_id=CHI11LO&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;utm_source=contact%40mademoiselle-voyage.fr&amp;placement=content-end\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Check whale watching availability and make a reservation<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-43765\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mademoiselle-voyage.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/baleines-franches-australes-hermanus-afrique-du-sud-mademoiselle-voyage-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mademoiselle-voyage.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/baleines-franches-australes-hermanus-afrique-du-sud-mademoiselle-voyage-2.jpg 1900w, https:\/\/www.mademoiselle-voyage.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/baleines-franches-australes-hermanus-afrique-du-sud-mademoiselle-voyage-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mademoiselle-voyage.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/baleines-franches-australes-hermanus-afrique-du-sud-mademoiselle-voyage-2-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.mademoiselle-voyage.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/baleines-franches-australes-hermanus-afrique-du-sud-mademoiselle-voyage-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mademoiselle-voyage.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/baleines-franches-australes-hermanus-afrique-du-sud-mademoiselle-voyage-2-800x533.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_GANSBAAI\"><\/span><strong>| GANSBAAI <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A 2-hour drive from Cape Town, you leave the peninsula and head for Gansbaai, a fishing village in the southern part of the Western Cape province.
