The West Coast National Park is also home to the replica of "Eve's Footprint". Discovered in 1995 at Kraalbaai, these prints are unmistakable human footfalls fossilised in rock (formerly sea sand) and are said to have belonged to a young woman who lived 117 000 years ago. This makes them the oldest known footprints of an anatomically modern human.

After a delightful meal at a local padstal, we return to Cape Town filled with the warmth of new experiences and the charm of the region.
