Cape Peninsula [06:20]
The scenic Cape Peninsula, part of Cape Town's Table Mountain National Park. It begins southwest of Table Mountain und stretches all the way to the Cape of Good Hope, over a distance of 40 kilometres. The mountains are covered with dense Fynbos vegetation. Many bays and coves with beautiful beaches, in the west along the Atlantic and in the East at the Indian Ocean. The journey starts in the pittoresc fishing village of Hout Bay with the busy harbour and lively promenade. Substantial amounts of fish are unloaded here every day. Mostly it is snoek or hake, mainly for export to Spain. Behind the fishing boats: the arts and crafts market with items from all over Africa, including diamonds. Boat rides on the bay are quite popular. As a farewell - and a welcome on return - the colourfully dressed street musicians from the Hangklip quarter play and sing their tunes. Proceeding to the Cape - on the Chapman's Peak Drive - along the Atlantic coast. To the left of the road - wonderful hiking trails into the Table Mountain National Park. The proteas are part of the unique fynbos vegetation. At Chapman's Point the view of Hout Bay is overwhelming. Here starts the most dramatic part of the stretch. Steep rockwalls, narrow curves and gallery tunnels, and to the right the endless blue Atlantic ocean. Behind the last bend a wide view opens. In front lies the wild sandy beach of Noordhoek. One of the most beautiful beaches in South Africa. Close to the Cape: ostriches at the sea. The Cape ...

Chapman's Peak Drive on the Cape Peninsula [01:59]
The Chapman's Peak Drive on the Cape Peninsula - from Hout Bay to Noordhoek. Behind the toll station starts the most beautiful road in the Western Cape. With a stunning view of Hout Bay and the distintive Mount Sentinel at the entrance to the bay. To the left of the road - wonderful hiking trails into the pristine nature of the Table Mountain National Park. With its unique fynbos vegetation. The proteas are part of it. At Chapman's Point the view is overwhelming. Here starts the most dramatic part of the stretch. Steep rockwalls, narrow serpentine curves and gallery tunnels, and to the right the endless blue Atlantic ocean. Behind the last bend a wide view opens. In front lies the wild sandy beach of Noordhoek. For me the most beautiful beach in South Africa.

Cage Diving with Great Whites [00:55]
On a journey through South Africa, along the Garden Route, we came across a brochure for Shark Diving Unlimited, in Gansbaai, South Africa. As the thrill seekers that we are we decided that we should jump at the chance so we read a bit more information, made the phone call and then booked our dive trip. There is no experience necessary. You don't need to know how to use scuba equipment as they don't use it when you jump in the cage. In fact, when we did our dives we were instructed to "simply hold your breath". It was a spectacular, yet terrifying experience. If your ever in South Africa, these guys were great to adventure with.
