Whale Coast Catamaran Tour

Discover the Whale Coast on a scenic journey through the Hottentots Holland mountains to charming Hermanus.

Beyond the Ordinary

Journey through the Hottentots Holland Mountains, where rolling apple orchards set the scene for a memorable day on the Whale Coast. Arriving in the seaside town of Hermanus, you'll board a catamaran for an unforgettable marine safari. During whale season, from May to November, Southern Right Whales are often the stars of the show, while dolphins, seals, penguins and a variety of seabirds can be encountered throughout the year. Rather than rushing from one stop to the next, there's time to truly appreciate each experience, whether it's enjoying a leisurely meal, wandering the beautiful pathways of Harold Porter Botanical Garden, or simply taking in the region's remarkable scenery. As the day draws to a close, you'll return to Cape Town along the spectacular Clarence Drive, one of South Africa's most scenic coastal routes, with plenty of opportunities to soak up the views and reflect on a day filled with natural beauty and wildlife.
