EVERY YEAR, WALKER BAY WELCOMES THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WISHING TO WITNESS THE MANY GIANTS OF THE DEEP THAT HAVE CLAIMED THIS COASTAL CORNER AS A NURSERY FOR THEIR CALVES. THE CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE PREDOMINANTLY SOUTHERN RIGHT WHALES INSTANTLY ELEVATES THE EXPERIENCE, WHETHER VIEWING FROM ROCKY CLIFFS IN HERMANUS, A HIKING TRAIL AT DE KELDERS, A LUXURY WHALE WATCHING BOAT OFF THE COAST OF GANSBAAI OR A PLANE OFFERING UNBEATABLE PHOTOGRAPHIC OPPORTUNITIES.
Perhaps you will even glimpse seals, sharks, penguins and dolphins while visiting this premier land-based whale-watching location between June and November.
The famous Hermanus ‘Whale Crier’ announces the arrival of new whales in the bay with a kelp horn that encourages nearby explorers to look out for breaching beasts, slapping tails and frolicking families in the frothing waves below.
The landscapes in this part of the world enriched with flora and fauna are often best enjoyed from nature sanctuaries such as De Hoop, Grootbos or Mosaic.
