The map
Gansbaai lies on the southern coast of the Western Cape, on the eastern shore of Walker Bay, southeast of Hermanus. Its map is defined by the sea: a rocky coastline running along one side, a small harbour, and residential streets laid out across the gently sloping land behind the shore, with fynbos-covered ground stretching inland.
The town is known internationally for shark cage diving, with boats heading out toward Dyer Island and the channel beside it, waters associated with great white sharks and seals. Just south of town, Danger Point juts into the sea, marked by its lighthouse. Offshore, the troopship HMS Birkenhead sank in 1852, a wreck remembered for the tradition of women and children first.
A Gansbaai map poster shows how closely the town is tied to its coastline. The shoreline, the harbour and the point create strong natural edges, while the streets fill the land between the sea and the hills. The result is a clean, balanced image of a place where fishing, tourism and the ocean shape daily life.
The irregular shoreline runs along the seaward side of the town, creating a detailed natural edge that gives the poster much of its character.
This headland south of town extends into the sea with a lighthouse at its tip, forming a distinctive tapering shape at the edge of the map.
The small fishing harbour sits on the waterfront, where the working life of the town meets the ocean, a compact geometric shape against the coastline.

Gansbaai draws people who have dived, fished or simply spent holidays along this coast, as well as those who live here year-round. A map of the town, with its coastline and Danger Point, makes a strong and lasting reminder of the sea.
