The Cape of Good Hope is a rocky promontory in South Africa’s Western Cape province. It’s one of the most famous capes in maritime history, and was a key waypoint for sailors. The Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias was the first European to record seeing the cape in 1488, which opened the first all-water route from Europe to Asia.
