Arniston - Kassiesbaai and Waenhuiskrans Cave

Just north-east of Cape Agulhas, on the shores of Agulhas in the Western Cape, about 210km from Cape Town, you will find the small picturesque fishing village of Arniston. Some refer to it as The Wreck of Arniston while others call it Waenhuiskrans, an Afrikaans name meaning literally “Wagon house cliff”, named after a local popular sea cave, Waenhuiskrans Cave, large enough to accommodate a wagon and a span of oxen.
The name ‘Arniston’ comes from one of the many shipwrecks on the area’s jagged coastline, “The Arniston Transport”. The Arniston sank here in 1815 with wounded soldiers, it was on its way from Ceylon to England via Cape Town. Only 6 of the original 378 passengers survived to tell the story - one of the worst in South Africa’s history.
