Nice park! was here to see the southern tip. -drove in, no fee or check point. The road to the shipreck had some construction going on. And the dirt road to the southern tip is very rocky.

This has been an exceptional experience that will stay with me for a long time. The quietness, the ocean the wide open spaces, it all added to the experience. A must see when you are in the Western Cape.

What a breathtaking and awe inspiring park! The cottages are absolutely beautiful and perfectly allocated to provide the most privacy and splendid sea views. Hiking trails are well marked. Birding opportunities are endless. Thank you to the lovely ladies at Reception for your friendly assistance. Was such a pleasure to liaise with you! We'll definitely be back as soon as we can!!

Stunning park to explore, well maintained boardwalks and Lighthouse. Loved the iconic spot where where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet and the massive map of Africa. Beautiful landscapes and flora. Excited to see the shipwreck there too just off the shoreline. Roads were also well maintained. Now we can say we've visited the Southernmost tip of Africa!
