Indian South Current

West of Saint Paul and Amsterdam islands, the southern Indian Ocean lies in the belt of the westerlies. Dutch ships used these winds for the passage from the Cape towards Java. In 1696 Willem de Vlamingh's expedition was instructed to call at the two islands on its way to the Southland.
