  • Tides and Water Level Working Group
    World- Wide Navigational Warning Service Sub-Committee Cape Town, South Africa 28 Aug – 1 Sep 2017 The 2017 WWNWS-SC Working Group Meeting will be held in Newlands, a suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. Cape Town is home not only to beautiful wine lands, stunning beaches and a multicultural population, but is also home to one of the 7 Natural wonders of the world – Table Mountain. Cape Town is the provincial capital city of the Western Cape. As the seat of the National Parliament it is also the legislative capital of South Africa. Located on the shore of Table Bay, Cape Town was first developed by the Dutch East India Company as a supply station for Dutch ships sailing to East Africa, India, and the Far East. Jan van Riebeeck's arrival on 6 April 1652 established the first permanent European settlement in South Africa. Cape Town quickly outgrew its original purpose as the first European outpost at the Castle of Good Hope, becoming the economic and cultural hub of the Cape Colony. Until the Witwatersrand Gold Rush and the development of Johannesburg, Cape Town was the largest city in South Africa. Newlands is an upmarket suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. It is located at the foot of Table Mountain in the Southern Suburbs of Cape Town, and is the wettest suburb in South Africa due to its high winter rainfall. It is best known for Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, Newlands Forest, Newlands Cricket Ground and Newlands Stadium, a rugby union and football venue. It is also the original home of Ohlsson's Cape Breweries, which is still located next to the rugby grounds.
