In geography, a cape is a headland of large size that extends into a body of water, typically an ocean. Capes are often characterized by their distinctive protruding shape and can serve as significant navigation points for maritime travel. The term can also refer to the area of land surrounding the water, making them important landmarks for both ships and coastal communities. Capes are usually named for their geographical features, historical significance, or for prominent individuals.
