Mossel Bay, Western Cape, South Africa

The harbour town of Mossel Bay is well-known for the Cape St. Blaize lighthouse, which has stood there since the 19th century. Climb up to the top for amazing views across the bay. The wide, sandy Santos Beach offers the chance to swim, tan and enjoy water sports. While in town, visit the Bartolomeu Dias Museum Complex, with its Maritime Museum, a Shell Museum and some pretty botanical gardens to explore.
