CATCH A FERRY TO SOUTH AFRICA’S HISTORIC ROBBEN ISLAND These days, a trip to Robben Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a must-do on the itinerary of any tourist to Cape Town. For centuries, however, the trip was one to be feared. Forget palm trees and sun-kissed beaches; Robben Island’s allure lies in its rich and wretched history. South Africa’s first democratically elected president – Nelson Mandela – spent 18 years of his 27 years in prison on Robben Island. Easily the most famous of the island’s political prisoners, Mandela was by no means the island’s only notable inmate – South African presidents Kgalema Motlanthe and Jacob Zuma also spent time there. The Apartheid government wasn’t the first to use the island as a prison. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the Dutch sent political prisoners from the Dutch East Indies to the island.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Kapstaden: Boulders Beach, Cape of Good Hope, Chapman’s Peak Drive.
