The Northern Cape is a dry region with fluctuating temperatures and differing topographies. Its weather is typically that of desert and semi-desert areas. In South Africa.

The winter rains to the Northern Cape bring to life the glorious profusion of wildflowers that decorate the regions from late August until the end of September. Kimberley, the capital of the Northern Cape is well know for its history of diamonds and many important battles of the devastating Anglo- Boer War that lasted from 1899 to 1902 were fought in this region.

The Green Kalahari a flourishing green valley marks the path that the Orange River cuts through the Northern Cape where farmers and, in particular, winemakers have learnt to use every precious drop of water wisely. The Augrabies Falls National Park and the Kgalagadi Trans frontier Park (a combined conservation project between South Africa and Botswana), where thousands of animals have found sanctuary, are undoubtedly the two jewels of the region.
