Noordhoek in the Mist

A thick blanket of sea mist rolls silently across Noordhoek's Long Beach at dawn, its soft pink and white tendrils curling around the base of the dramatic Chapman's Peak cliffs as the first light of day warms the mountain tops in gold. The turquoise Atlantic laps against the white sand shore while the mist transforms the entire valley into a dreamlike, ethereal landscape. This award-winning aerial panorama captures one of the Cape Peninsula's most spectacular natural phenomena over one of its most iconic beaches.
