Cabo de Hornos

Infamous Cape Horn, Cabo de Hornos, doesn't appear quite so foreboding or dangerous in this photo.

Cape Horn, where the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans meet, was discovered by Dutch navigators Willem Corneliszoon Schouten in 1616 as an alternate way from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
