The Easiest Shipwreck to Explore in Cape Town | Wreck of Kakapo

The Kakapo was a British steam ship built in 1988 by the Grangemouth Dockyard Company and commanded by Captain P. Nicolayson. As she rounded Hout Bay the gale became so ferocious that it pushed the Kakapo towards the southern end of Chapman’s Bay. The Captain then mistook Chapman’s Peak for Cape Point and by the time he realized his mistake the Kakapo had driven ashore on Noordhoek Beach.

It's a very easy shipwreck to visit, literally a (very long) stroll along the beach. The best time to visit is late in the afternoon so you can enjoy the sunset from the area. On your way there or back, you can also pass through Chapman's Peak Drive which is considered the best drive in Cape Town.

My name is Tino and shortly after I got out of varsity, I quickly realised that adulting was the ghetto. There's just so much I don't know... and no one teaches you these things we need to know when we grow up.
