Embark on a spectacular Whale Watching Tour along South Africa’s stunning coast, where you’ll witness the grace and grandeur of Southern Right whales in their natural habitat. Just a short drive from Cape Town, this experience offers a rare opportunity to see these majestic creatures up close as they gather in the warm, sheltered waters around Hermanus from June to November.
The scenic coastal Clarens Drive offers spectacular views of False Bay.
Along the route we stop in to see the second colony of African Penguins on the mainland before arriving at the quaint holiday town of Hermanus.
There we join a boat-based whale watching excursion. A 2 to 3 hour seabased whale trip takes you close to the giants that arrive here to mate and calve.

Take in the quaint seaside town of Hermanus.
On the way back to Cape Town, we stop at a farm stall where you can find natural preserves, jams with a difference, and delicious pastries, and enjoy a cup of tea (own account and time permitting).
We return over Sir Lowry’s Mountain Pass.
This tour operates during the Whale Season from July to November only.
There is no guarantee that Whales will be sighted although our guides make every effort to find the best viewing point.
Handy tip: Sun protection, protective clothing and preventative treatment against seas sickness are advisable when going on the boat trip.
