SAT-3 - Cape Town 2001

Cape of Good Hope - A trip to Cape Point, where in 1488 Bartholomeu Dias, the Portuguese seafarer, was the first to sail around it, is a must for any Cape Town visitor, during a SAT-3 Cable System meeting in Cape Towon. The name Cape of Good Hope was given by King John of Portugal as Cabo da Boa Esperança and another Portuguese explorer, Vasco da Gama, rounded the Cape on 22 November 1497 on his way to India.
