| The Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve is
situated at the southern tip of the Western Cape Province, about 80 km from
Cape Town. The 7 675 hectare reserve is filled with priceless indigenous
flora and fauna. Many vessels wrecked by the turbulent seas have found there
resting place along this rocky coastline. The route to the south western tip
of the reserve to Cape Point is particularly beautiful in Spring when the wild
flowers bloom. Cape Point is said to be the meeting place of two mighty Oceans,
the Indian and Atlantic. Sir Francis Drake, the explorer, once called it the
fairest Cape that he had seen in the whole circumference of the globe.
