Sightseeing

Rising from a rocky outcrop over a bustling harbour, Cape St. Blaize Lighthouse offers amazing views of the bay and the coastline. The lighthouse was built in 1864, with its elegant white, Victorian tower, still remains a favorite post of the South African light-keepers due to the proximity of the town. You can take a short hike up the hill to reach the lighthouse and you might meet the dassies along the way. Under the lighthouse is a cave carved in a cliff, which was once home to Khoikhoi hunter-gatherers, and exhibits some interesting historical facts and fossils found in the area. Cape St Blaize Lighthouse is open from Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays), from 10h00 to 15h00.
