The vastness of the African continent has countless unique places to discover. One of these places is Cape Town. It was discovered there in 1487 by a navigator, Bartolomé Díaz, who would give the cape where the city is located the name Cape of Storms. It is not very difficult to imagine the reason for this name. Today we know this cape as the Cape of Good Hope . Name that was given to it for being considered a good place for maritime trade business.
Focusing more on the city, in its center known as Main Road , you can find a wide variety of accommodation for all types of budgets. On this main street is the heart of the city. It is full of trendy venues and strident colors. In addition, both its cosmopolitan atmosphere and its great nightlife make the city a good tourist attraction. In general, the rest of its streets are full of rhythm.
However, there is something that makes it special. Its geography . On the peninsula in which it is located, there is a steep mountain range that ends at Punta del Cabo and juts out into the Atlantic Ocean. Thus, from it you can enjoy stunning views of the ocean. Also protected by a natural wall, Mount Mesa , in its interior we can find numerous peaks and impressive cliffs of intense green.
It is a good place for wine lovers , since in this region there are a large number of wineries. In fact, routes for wine tourism depart from the city. If you dare, you can also go in search of white sharks , a species that travels these coasts daily. Diving with them can be a once in a lifetime experience.
