Whale Watching
Southern Right Whales annually migrate to this area from June to November to mate and give birth. Hermanus has recently been voted as the best place in the world to watch whales. Whale watching trips can be done by air and by boat as well all along the coast-hugging Cliff Path which is a short 5-minute walk from our guesthouse.
