Among the trails that can be done in the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, the Thomas T. Tucker trail is a very interesting choice, as it offers a beachwalk, two shipwrecks, and a trail going through the interior.
The beach got wider as I continued walking south, and I started scanning the sea in a distance to see if I could see the wreck of the Thomas T. Tucker. My attention got distracted by the many birds here - I saw a big rock right off the powerful surf of the Atlantic completely covered by black cormorants; when one of them decided to take off, the others followed, resulting in a big cloud of black birds taking to the sky. And then, suddenly, I was very surprised to see a silhouette quite close to me - right on the beach. That silhouette unmistakably was a shipwreck. I had arrived at the wreck of the Thomas T. Tucker. The wreck is still quite intact, and you can easily recognize the bigger parts of the ship. Scattered around the beach, I also saw pieces of the ship, slowly rusting away and being hammered continuously by the strong Atlantic waves.
