Routes to/from
Popular routes, timing, etc.
Approach
The following waypoints should be used (as a guide only) in the approach to Hout Bay Harbour:
- 1) 34º 04.106'S, 18º 21.016'E (entrance to the bay)
- 2) 34º 03.207'S, 18º 21.332'E
- 3) 34º 02.973'S, 18º 21.198'E
- 4) 34º 03.070'S, 18º 20.983'E (harbour entrance)
Dangers:
- Vessels approaching from the North should give the mainland a wide berth past "Oude Schip" as there are many submerged rocks in that area.
- Vessels approaching from the South should give Kommetjie a wide berth due to large waves in that area at times.
- All Vessels should note the presence of Vulcan Rock (34º 03.967'S, 18º 18.582'E), a large semi-submerged rock that can not always be seen in the Northern approach.
