Tsau

Angra Pequena is a sheltered bay on the Atlantic coast of southern Africa, where the Namib Desert reaches the sea. Rocky shores and offshore islands lie beside a dry hinterland of sand and gravel. The Portuguese navigator Bartolomeu Dias reached the bay during his voyage around southern Africa and named it Angra Pequena, the Little Bay. He raised a stone cross on the peninsula, leaving a marker of the sea route sought by Portugal towards the Indian Ocean.
