From Route 62 to the South

We left Oudtshoorn westwards along the famous Route 62. Our first stop at Calitzdorp brought us to De Krans Winery, where they mainly produce Port Wine, like the entire region does. We tried some White and Red as well - and bought a bottle of each. The road along Route 62 passed through pure nature, there is not much around. Famous Ronnies Sex Shop and Barrysdale came along and then we turned off towards Swellendam. The oldest place in South Africa apparently. We had a tasty lunch in a lovely outdoor restaurant - a local Bobotie dish😋
We continued our way straight south towards Cape Agulhas where „The Southern-most tip of the continent of Africa“ is. The way there was a battle against the wind. Our Travelbox got shaken around like a plane in turbulences. Very tiring to drive.
We ended up at this famous „must visit“ place, where apparently also the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet and took the necessary pictures before ending up in a deserted campsite directly by the sea. We were the only one…plus the wind! It blew so strong during the night that we had to reposition our van behind a building to get less moved around 🙈Read more
