Explore South Africa’s Cape region where the habitats of Africa and Antarctica collide. The Cape Peninsula marks the point where two mighty ocean currents merge: the icy, nutrient-rich Benguela current and the warm Agulhas from the tropics.

With sunshine, sandy beaches and palm trees, South Africa’s East Coast is a true paradise. Reptiles thrive in the hot weather of the mangroves and the bayous.

From the savanna to the desert, the heart of South Africa is home to everything from successful hunters and extremely odd animals. Due to the short, intense rainy season the vast semi deserts and dry savannas of South Africa’s interior become a perfect setting for one of the most colorful natural spectacles on the planet.
