Whale Watching

Hermanus is a popular destination for whale watching in South Africa. The town is located along the southern coast of the Western Cape province and is known for its excellent land-based whale watching opportunities. The whale watching season in Hermanus typically runs from early June to late November, with peak season being from August to October. During this time, the Southern Right whales can be seen from the shore as they come to the area to mate, calve and nurse their young.

There are several vantage points along the cliffs of Hermanus that offer great views of the whales, including the cliff path and the Old Harbour. Boat-based whale tours are also available for those who want to take a closer look at the whales. These tours are operated by licensed operators who follow strict guidelines to ensure the safety of both the viewers and the whales.
