What to do and see in Northern Cape, South Africa: The Best Boat Tours & Water Sports

May 19, 2022 Dorsey Hagwood

The Northern Cape (Afrikaans: Noord-Kaap; Tswana: Kapa Bokone) is the largest and most sparsely populated province of South Africa. It was created in 1994 when the Cape Province was split up. Its capital is Kimberley. It includes the Kalahari Gemsbok National Park, part of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, an international park shared with Botswana. It also includes the Augrabies Falls and the diamond mining regions in Kimberley and Alexander Bay. The Namaqualand region in the west is famous for its Namaqualand daisies. The southern towns of De Aar and Colesberg, in the Great Karoo, are major transport nodes between Johannesburg, Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. In the northeast, Kuruman is known as a mission station and also for its artesian spring, the Eye of Kuruman. The Orange River flows through the province, forming the borders with the Free State in the southeast and with Namibia to the northwest. The river is also used to irrigate the many vineyards in the arid region near Upington.

Wildbird Adventures

Hi I'm Candace, I'm a bodyworker of more than 10 years, & a yoga teacher, but mostly, I'm a long aspiring wild bird. I have a thirst for what journeying barefoot and expanded, in some of the most beautiful places the outside has to offer does for us, and I invite you to experience the joy and glory of it with me. My interest is in the expansion of the feminine and combining what I know to yield body and heart opening experiences, particularly for women, that enliven and enrich.
