Whale watching
South Africa is a prime location for observing sea mammals. These beautiful animals can be watched from both land and water. Each year, a variety of different whales and orca’s – find their way to the countless Western Cape bays to breed, meaning that – between June and December – there is a plethora of opportunities to see these creatures along the coasts of the island. Additionally, large groups of dolphins can be seen throughout the year.
Near Stellendal, the old fishing village Hermanus offers a fine view of whales due to its low cliffs and clear water. While you’re at the docks, why not visit the maritime museum established there? As an added bonus, you can listen to the sounds the whales make as they swim through Walker Bay by means of an underwater microphone in the museum.
​
A wealth of whale watching trips is offered in the Western Cape province. Should you desire more information, Stellendal Guest house employees are glad to be of service!
