In order to sail the South Atlantic and round the tip of Africa, Portuguese sailors had to confront two powerful ocean flows: the Agulhas and Benguela currents. The warm Agulhas runs south and west from the Indian Ocean, meeting the cold north-flowing Benguela current in a climactic duel off the coast of the Western Cape.

Aguela is a symbiosis of these two powerful flows, symbolizing the beauty of these Cape waters, and the importance that it has for the people who use it.

Aguela is based around the theme of water to report on sailing, fishing, surfing, motor-boating and life-style amongst others.

The program will not only show the glitz and glamour, but will also have a weekly insert on a community initiatives, water safety and sea/ weather reporting.

Each segment will be introduced by well known radio and TV host Natalie Becker , who is the face of Aguela!

Visually the look the program will be fresh and dynamic, camera angles taken from in boats, helicopters and underwater. Where needed interviews will be undertaken, with cutaways to relevant subject matter. While striving to be exciting to look at, Aguela will also be a program about informative, objective reporting with attention to quality content.

The program will be made in the Western Cape, with stories and information about people living in the Western Cape. The program length will run to a 25 minute program slot and will always run to the same format.
