A Color Panoramic Landscape photo of the of Kogel Bay or also known as False Bay or The Bay of Water in the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve which is a Biodiversity hot-spot near Cape Town, South Africa. The Kogelberg is a range of mountains along the False Bay coast in the Western Cape of South Africa. They form part of the Cape Fold Belt, starting south of the Elgin valley and forming a steep coastal range as far as Kleinmond. The Kogelberg area has the steepest and highest drop directly into the ocean of any southern African coastal stretch. The mountains are made predominantly of Table Mountain Sandstone and form some very rugged terrain, which is extremely rich in fynbos, the native Cape flora
