3. It is known for its spectacular scenery. It was originally named the Cape of Storms by Portuguese explorer Bartholomew Dias in 1488. It was later renamed, by King John II of Portugal, the Cape of Good Hope because of the great optimism engendered by the opening of a sea route to India and the East.

4. The original lighthouse was built in 1859 on Da Gama Peak, the summit of Cape Point, 238m above sea level. This made it very ineffective in mist which mandated the establishment of the second lighthouse at 87 meters. The newer lighthouse, built in 1914, is the most powerful on the South African coast.

About Ciudad del Cabo

Ciudad del Cabo se extiende entre la Montaña de la Mesa y el mar: playas, viñedos, pingüinos e historia cerca del extremo suroeste de África.

La cima plana de la Montaña de la Mesa se cierne sobre todo, accesible en teleférico o por senderos, flanqueada por Lion's Head y Signal Hill. Debajo, el V&A Waterfront bulle en torno al puerto en activo, y desde allí salen barcos a Robben Island, donde Nelson Mandela estuvo preso dieciocho años. Las casas de colores del Bo-Kaap suben por las laderas sobre el centro y el Company's Garden.
