The dark area on the coast next to Cape Town is the Table Mountain group which reaches a height of 1086 metres. Just to the right of Cape Town is a region of vineyards. Along the coast at bottom right is the Hottentot-Holland Range. At top right is part of the Great Escarpment, the edge of the South African Plateau. This image was made by Landsat 4 in 1983.
