We set out in honour of the many soldiers who lost their lives as well as all those who lay their down for those weaker than themselves... Gansbaai is a town rich of rich history, from early man to the time of the settlers, the area has a host of stories with one being more infamous than that of the HMS Birkenhead. On the 26th of February 1852, the HMS Birkenhead was travelling from Simon’s town, on it’s way up the east coast. This was an English ship travelling with a regiment of soldiers towards Algoa Bay to fight a war against the Xhosa people. At about 2 O’ Clock in the morning, the ship struck an uncharted rock just off Danger Point. The ship began to take in water, and we believe that for the first time in maritime history, it was ordered that all the men should stand back, and that the women and children should board the life rafts first. Hundreds of lives were lost that day, but all of the women and children were saved. To honour these brave men, we set out every year on this day to the very rock where the ship still lays.
