1. Hout Bay (Afrikaans: Houtbaai, meaning "Wood Bay") is a suburb of Cape Town, South Africa situated in a valley on the Atlantic seaboard of the Cape Peninsula, twenty kilometres south of the Central Business District of Cape Town. The name "Hout Bay" can refer to the town, the bay on which it is situated, or the entire valley.

2. History of Chapman's Peak Drive. Chapman's Peak is named after John Chapman, the Captain's mate of an English ship the Consent. The peak which looms overhead was not named after a governor or brave mountaineer, but a lowly ship's pilot.

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 Kapstaden

Kapstaden breder ut sig mellan Taffelberget och havet, en slående stad av stränder, vingårdar, pingviner och historia nära Afrikas sydvästra spets.

Taffelbergets platta topp höjer sig över allt, nåbar med linbana eller vandringsleder, med Lion's Head och Signal Hill på flankerna. Nedanför sjuder V&A Waterfront kring den fungerande hamnen, och därifrån lämnar båtar för Robben Island, där Nelson Mandela hölls fången i arton år. Bo-Kaaps färgglada hus klättrar uppför sluttningarna ovanför stadens centrum och Company's Garden.
