Northern Cape

The Northern Cape is South Africa's largest province but has the smallest population, creating a sense of boundless space and solitude. It is a land of arid beauty, from the red dunes of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park to the diamond fields of Kimberley and the spectacular annual bloom of wildflowers in Namaqualand.
