In this episode of the Africa Explorer, we jump into the warm waters of the Indian Ocean off the cliff face of the world-renowned Cape of Storms. Crevices hide a variety of ocean dwellers complemented by a vast spectrum of Sharks. This stretch provides the perfect conditions for some of Southern Africa's most famous reefs, with aquatic life existing in countless numbers. After our time in the sea, we head inland to the Swartberg mountains and enter a world that seldom sees the light of day- the Cango Caves. Rich in the ancient history of early man, these caves are not for the faint of heart as rock formations dangle sharply overhead; only the brave can venture past the infamous darkness and deeper into the mountain. Returning to the surface and now sure-footed, we head to the Drakensberg in Lesotho- the Mountain Kingdom to follow our ancestors footsteps along trails that date back hundreds of years.
