It was a Portugues traveller by name Bartholomew Dias who travelled to the south most tip of Africa in the year 1487 which is the present day Cape of Good Hope. His main intention was that he wanted to discover an efficient trade route to India. It was named as Cape of Storms prior to his visit which later got renamed by the Kig of Portugal John II to the Cape of Good Hope or Cabo da Boa Esperanca. Hope this helps.
