Surfers brave the cold waters, chasing the perfect wave, while seabirds dance on the breeze above. Yet, Tofino offers more than just thrills on the surf. Hiking trails wind through old-growth forests, revealing hidden waterfalls and panoramic vistas that stir the soul. Kayakers paddle through tranquil coves, where curious seals play in the surf. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ✉ ✉ SIGN UP TO OUR EMAIL UPDATES HERE: www.Altliving.co ✉ ✉ 👉🏻 👉🏻 Follow 👉🏻 Instagram: @steveandnaz 👉🏻 Telegram: @AltLiving 👉🏻 Email Updates + Web Site: www.Altliving.co 👉🏻 Facebook: @AltLivingTinyHouses 👉🏻 OTHER SOCIALS: www.linktr.ee/steveandnaz

Its beaches, like Chesterman Beach and Cox Bay, offer world-class surfing, breathtaking sunsets, and opportunities for beachcombing and wildlife spotting.

Considered by many to be the most famous Cape in the world, Cape Point has always represented a danger to sailors and their ships, since the day Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias first spotted it in 1488, more than 500 years ago. Cape Point Lighthouse is just over 2 kilometers from the Cape of Good Hope and its story is more tragic than you might think. Shipwrecks had been a concern on the cape since the 1400s. In 1859 a lighthouse was built to help sailors, but it caused more damage than anything else; They built it on Pico Da Gama, which is on the summit of Cape Point, 238m above sea level, which was very high and difficult to see, It was only after the SS Lusitania was wrecked nearby in 1911 that the proposal to build a new lighthouse at a lower altitude was finally accepted. *About The Cape of Good Hope* On March 12, 1488, the Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias saw the cape for the first time on his way to India and gave it the name Cabo das Tormentas due to the frequent storms coming from the Southwest and also to a 4-knot current that creates waves giant and dangerous sweepers. As soon as Bartolomeu Dias returned to Portugal and told King João II about his find, Joãozinho thought it best to rename the Cape of Storms to the Cape of Good Hope because it symbolized the opening of the sea route to the east, and now India could be reached by sea from Europe. Renaming it “Boa Esperança” did nothing to change the fact that even the most experienced sailors feared these waters, after many shipwrecks had occurred here that took the lives of many people on board. *About The Flying Dutchman* Of all these shipwrecks, the most famous is the story of the Flying Dutchman; a ship doomed to sail the oceans forever after being lost in a severe storm near the Cape. Although it is difficult to trace a legend and we cannot confirm whether the ship actually existed, it is said that in 1641 a Dutch galleon, chartered by the Dutch East India Company, sank off the coast of the Cape of Good Hope during a devastating storm and neither ship nor crew, including their captain, a Dutchman whose name varies between Bernard Fokke and Hendrick Van der Decken, were found. After that, many sailors claimed to have seen the Flying Dutchman, floating in the air, without touching the waters. On July 11, 1881, the young Prince George, who 30 years later would become the King of the United Kingdom, King George the Fifth, and his older brother, Prince Albert Victor, were aboard HMS Bacchante sailing off the coast of Australia. At 4 am, the crew claimed to be surprised by the appearance of the ghost ship. As sailors at that time were very superstitious, maritime disasters were also attributed to the Flying Dutchman who allegedly drove ships into rocks and coral. Nowadays, we know that such apparitions were caused by a phenomenon that causes mirages on the surface of the sea. This happens when light bends due to different air temperatures. It's like that mirage we see on the asphalt when it's very hot. But of course, at that time, people didn't have this type of knowledge and the legend became popular, even being turned into a book, and later, ending up on your television.

Found on the Corner of Duiwe Rivier Rd and Church Rd, Hoekwil, South Africa. (+27 44 850 1037) 2 - Visit the Rondi! Rondi is a self catering rondavel situated nearby the bakery. https://heritageza.co.za/rondi/ At the Heritage Bakery, they offer a variety of baked goods, pastries, prepared breakfast and lunch meals and more. The bakery is off the main highway providing it with a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. A rondavel (also spelled rondawel) is a traditional round hut-like dwelling with a conical thatched roof. These structures are commonly found in various African countries, including South Africa, Lesotho, Botswana, and others, where they are often associated with african tribes such as the Zulu, Xhosa, and Sotho. Here are some key characteristics of a rondavel house: Circular Design: Rondavels are typically circular or occasionally oval in shape, with walls made of mud, clay, or stone. In some cases, modern materials like bricks may be used. Thatched Roof: The roof of a rondavel is often traditionally thatched with materials like grass, reeds, or palm leaves. This construction helps with insulation and provides protection from the elements. Single Room: Rondavels usually consist of a single large room with a central hearth for cooking and heating. In some cases, additional smaller rooms or partitions may be added for storage or sleeping areas. Ventilation and Lighting: Rondavels typically have a small doorway and one or two small windows to allow for ventilation and natural light. Cultural Significance: Rondavels are not only practical dwellings but also hold cultural significance in many African communities. They are often associated with traditional lifestyles, family life, and communal living. Modern Adaptations: While traditional rondavels are still prevalent in many rural areas, modern adaptations of the design can be found in urban and suburban settings. These may include more durable building materials, such as bricks or concrete, and amenities like electricity and plumbing. Overall, rondavels are emblematic of the rich cultural heritage and ingenuity of African architecture, offering both practical shelter and a sense of culture. 🎧🎶 Music licensed by SoundStripe.

The Cape fur seal colony at Pelican Point in Namibia is a remarkable showcase of creation. Situated along the rugged Atlantic coast, this colony is a vital hub for the Cape fur seals (Arctocephalus pusillus). Pelican Point, located near Walvis Bay, provides an ideal habitat for these marine mammals due to its sheltered coves and abundant food supply from the Benguela Current. The colony attracts thousands of Cape fur seals, making it one of the largest and most accessible colonies in Namibia. Visitors can witness these playful and social creatures lounging on the sandy shores, basking in the sun, and engaging in playful interactions. The area is also a breeding ground, where seals give birth and nurse their young. Tourism centered around this colony offers a unique opportunity for wildlife enthusiasts and conservationists to observe the seals in their natural habitat, promoting awareness about marine conservation and the importance of protecting these seals. ✉ ✉ 👉🏻 👉🏻 SIGN UP TO OUR EMAIL UPDATES HERE: http://www.Altliving.co 👉🏻 👉🏻 Follow Us 👉🏻 Instagram: @steveandnaz 👉🏻 Telegram: @AltLiving 👉🏻 Email Updates + Web Site: www.Altliving.co 👉🏻 Facebook: @AltLivingTinyHouses Help us make more videos like these: Do all your shopping through with our Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3TWNIcg Locals: https://tinyhousestinyliving.locals.com/​ Other: www.AltLiving.co (As an Amazon Associate, we earn commission when you purchase 'through' some of our special links above...

Immediately south of Angola, it stretches from the Kunene River to the Swakop River, although the name is sometimes used to describe the entire Namib Desert coast. The indigenous San people (formerly known as Bushmen), of the Namibian interior called the region "The Land God Made in Anger", while Portuguese sailors once referred to it as "The Gates of Hell". The area's name derives from the whale and seal bones that once littered the shore, partly due to the whaling industry, although in modern times the coast also harbours the skeletal remains of the shipwrecks caught by offshore rocks and fog. More than a thousand such vessels of various sizes litter the coast, notably the Eduard Bohlen, Benguela Eagle, Otavi, Dunedin Star and Tong Taw. One of the oldest shipwrecks in the Skeleton Coast region is the Bom Jesus wreck near the town of Oranjemund. It ran ashore during the 1530s and is known to be one of the oldest discovered shipwrecks of the Iberian Atlantic tradition in Sub-Saharan Africa. On Thursday, 22 March 2018, a Japanese registered fishing vessel, MVF Fukuseki Maru, got into trouble and ran aground near Durissa Bay, south of the Ugab River mouth, lying 2 km from the Skeleton Coast beach in the ocean. All 24 foreign crew members were rescued by Namibian authorities. *Cape Seal Colony* Cape Cross Nature Reserve is the largest Cape fur seal colony in the world. During the breeding season in November and December, there may be up to 210 000 seals at Cape Cross. It's also a protected area owned by the government of Namibia under the name Cape Cross Seal Reserve. The reserve is the home of one of the largest colonies of Cape fur seals in the world. Cape Cross is one of two main sites in Namibia (the other is in Lüderitz) where seals are culled, partly for selling their hides and partly for protecting the fish stock. The economic impact of seals on the fish resources is controversial: while a government-initiated study found that seal colonies consume more fish than the entire fishing industry can catch, animal protection society Seal Alert South Africa estimated less than 0.3% losses to commercial fisheries.

It has vast stretches of undulating sand dunes, rugged rock formations, and stark, barren terrain. It’s also one of the most famous attractions in Namibia. *The Desert Itself* The Namib desert only receives 2 - 5 ml of water each year, making it one of the driest deserts in the world. One of the main sources of water that the scarce vegetation receives for most of the year comes from the breeze carried from the sea. Namib means “vast” or "an area where there is nothing" in the local Nama language. It is home to over 3500 species of plants and the region also boasts some of the world's most magnificent desert scenery. Not to mention its unusual animals, including desert lions, wild desert horses and oryx Near the Namib-Naukluft National Park, the Goanikontes Oasis has a series of natural springs that emerge from the desert's underground aquifers. These springs provide a reliable source of water, therefore, you can see many green trees here. The name "Goanikontes" is derived from the Nama language and translates to "place of water." It has been a vital water source for indigenous communities and early European settlers in the region. There are accommodations available at the oasis, ranging from campsites for travelers with their own camping gear to more comfortable lodges and guesthouses for those looking for a more comfortable stay. It’s also a good base to explore nearby activities, like the famous dune 45, the moon landing scape itself and other interesting things. The desert within Dorob National Park isn't the barren wasteland one might imagine. It's home to a wide array of wildlife. The Namib Desert beetle, has inbuilt ingenious mechanisms to extract water from the morning fog, surviving in one of the driest places on Earth. In the rocky outcrops and canyons, you'll find desert-adapted mammals like oryx, springbok, and desert foxes. These creatures have been created with sustenance to withstand the extreme temperatures and limited resources of the desert. The crown jewel of the desert, however, is the iconic Namib Desert, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stretches for over 1,200 miles. Its breathtaking vistas include the renowned Sossusvlei, where rust-red dunes rise dramatically against the deep blue sky. The stark beauty of this desert landscape draws photographers and adventure seekers alike. In this arid wilderness, the wildlife has the ability to survive the harshest of conditions. The elusive desert elephants and black rhinos roam the rocky terrain, while the skies are patrolled by the magnificent martial eagle. Nightfall in the Namib unveils a celestial spectacle, making it a prime location for stargazing. The region encompassing Walvis Bay, Dorob National Park, and the surrounding desert epitomizes the raw and captivating beauty of Namibia. It showcases the harmonious coexistence of marine life, desert landscapes, and resilient wildlife. This area is a testament to the wonders of our natural world and serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of conservation in preserving these ecosystems for generations to come. Whether you're an intrepid explorer or simply a lover of nature's wonders, this corner of Namibia is an invitation to immerse yourself in the enigmatic beauty of the desert and its remarkable wildlife.

#SouthAfrica #travelSouthafrica #namibia #namibdesert #historychannel #explorers Namibia, a land of mesmerizing landscapes and abundant wildlife, is a country that beckons explorers and nature enthusiasts from around the world. Nestled along the Atlantic Ocean coastline, the region around Walvis Bay and Dorob National Park offers a unique blend of marine wonders, expansive deserts, and diverse wildlife. Walvis Bay, a natural harbor and Namibia's only deep-sea port, serves as the gateway to this extraordinary region. Its name, meaning "Whale Bay" in Afrikaans, hints at the marine marvels that await. The bay's calm waters are a haven for marine life, and it's not uncommon to spot seals, dolphins, and even the majestic humpback whales. Birdwatchers also flock to the area to witness the migratory spectacle of thousands of flamingos turning the bay's shallow lagoon into a sea of pink. This unique interplay of marine and avian life makes Walvis Bay a vital stop for both local and migratory species. Dorob National Park, situated adjacent to Walvis Bay, extends the enchantment of this coastal region into the heart of the Namib Desert. Covering over 1,545 square miles, this national park is a haven for desert enthusiasts and conservationists. The park's striking dunes, some reaching heights of over 1,000 feet, are captivating natural sculptures shaped by the relentless wind and time. Adventurous souls can explore the otherworldly landscapes by 4x4, hike through the dunes, or embark on guided excursions.
