"Agulhas" means the compass needle. It is said that here, the navigators found that the compass needle pointed to the north, so they knew that this was the southernmost tip of the African continent. Agulhas is a quiet town with villas of various shapes scattered among the trees, and there is only one main street leading directly to the lighthouse.
