In the 1830s, passenger ships traveling from Portsmouth, UK, to Fremantle, Western Australia, typically followed a route that involved sailing down the Atlantic Ocean, around the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa, and then across the Indian ocean. Ships would often stop at various ports along the way for supplies and to refuel, including locations in South Africa and possibly Mauritius. The journey was long and could take several months, depending on weather conditions and the ship's speed.
