Hermanus

Hermanus sits on the Western Cape of South Africa and is famous for its beautiful coastline with white sandy beaches, stunning ocean views, and tall mountains. Hermanus is known as the “whale-watching capital of South Africa.” From June to November, marked by the Hermanus Whale Festival, people flock here to watch Southern Right whales that come to breed and give birth after a long journey from Antarctica.

The coastal town has a special tradition where a person called the Whale Crier blows a horn to let everyone know when whales are spotted. But Hermanus offers more than just whales. Visitors can enjoy outdoor activities like fishing and hiking, and also explore the village with its shops, restaurants, and art galleries. The town is also known for wine-tasting, its beaches, unique nature reserves, and local food. Hermanus has something enjoyable for everyone to experience
