We travel along the N2 towards Sir Lowry’s Pass where you can have a spectacular view of False Bay.
The focal point or “heart” of the Cape Whale Coast is the popular seaside resort of Hermanus, just a mere 2-hour drive south of Cape Town. It’s considered by many to be the “Best Land Based Whale Watching Spot In The World” where you can watch the Southern Right Whales basking in the waters of Hermanus. It is a beautiful town chosen by many living abroad as their second home. We will endeavour to let you see the giants from the sea, you will, however, have the option at your cost to take a boat trip to see the whales at sea.
We visit the endangered African penguins at Stoney Point and if time permits we do Winetasting at Bouchard Finlayson Wine Estate (On Sundays, we visit the Harold Porter Botanical gardens, as Bouchard Finlayson Wine Estate is closed) before we return back to Cape Town via scenic Clarence drive.
