The Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve occupies the southern end of the Cape Peninsula and thus of the Southern Peninsula Subregion referred to in the general study (photographs 2 and 29). The Reserve has an area of nearly 29 1/2 square miles; its coastline is some 24 miles in length. It is used both as a Nature Reserve and as a recreation area, the latter function being concentrated, in the main, within restricted coastal sites; apart from these, Cape Point is a considerable tourist attraction as is the drive through the Reserve. Existing access routes and travelling times to the Reserve are shown on Map No. 5.1, together with current proposals.
