I hope this helps you people. the pilgrims originally landed in Provincetown, Cape Cod, not Plymouth.
The Pilgrims, separatists in Holland, arrived in Cape-Cod November 1620 after a 65 day long voyage. They missed their destination, and decided to set up in Plymouth where they signed the Mayflower Contract.
The place where the pilgrims landed is marked by Plymouth Rock, which is inscribed with the year 1620. The rock is in Plymouth, Massachusetts, even though pilgrims first landed near Cape Cod.

Yes, the Pilgrims first landed on the very tip of the cape (Provinctown) before moving on to Plymouth.
Of the 102 passengers on the Mayflower, 2 died before landing at present-day Cape Cod. They spent the winter on the Mayflower, since they did not have housing, and after suffering scurvy, pneumonia and tuberculosis, only 53 were alive in the spring.45 of the 102 emigrants died in the first winter. By Thanksgiving there were only 53 people left to celebrate.

Cape Agulhas is a CAPE in Africa.A cape is the end point of the land area,reaching off to sea.
The Atlantic crossing took two months, but the Pilgrims arrived at Cape Cod in November and didn't start building any shelter at Plymouth until mid-December. Due to the lack of houses on land, most of the Pilgrims stayed on the Mayflower through the winter. They were afflicted with malnutrition, scurvy, pneumonia and intestinal problems that caused dehydration. Of the 102 passengers who made it to Cape Cod, 50 died during the winter of 1620.
