The little hill in the village is and easy climb and great views across the village and sea. Parking space near Checkers, but has a lot of steps

This Dutch Reform Church is definitely worth a visit. The original church on this site was built in 1802 and this building was erected in 1911. It is Cape Dutch in architectural style and very plain inside according to Dutch Refirm tradition. There are interesting gravestones in the beautifully kept gardens surrounding the church
3. Cape Agulhas Lighthouse

One cannot visit L'Agulhas without a stop at the famous Lighthouse overlooking the most southern tip of Africa. This time around what made it extra special is that my 3 year old son got to climb to the top and he enjoyed every second of it and was one of the highlights of our entire holiday. If there is one pit stop to make in L'Agulhas it is the Lighthouse.

We enjoyed our stay and were made very welcome. The Guesthouse is located in a great position overlooking the ocean and well located between 'town' and Cape Agulhas. Breakfast was great and the view sitting out the front in the afternoon/evening was fantastic. A nice and quiet location - we could have stayed a week!

Gearing’s point is a wonderful place to view the Whales. “Whale Cryer” with his sea weed horn will let you know when the whales are there. Benches supplied for those who would like to stay a while. Artistic sculptures to see along the path which are changed from time to time. Parking plentiful
