Hermanus...

Hermanus is a seaside town famous for its whale watching in the winter months - from May to October in the southern hemisphere. Southern Right Whales arrive off the Hermanus coast to give birth and to mate. We weren't in Hermanus at the right time of year to see any of the whales, but we saw many signs of the thriving whale tourism in this area.  This is the view over the Old Harbour.

The town also has a lovely craft market and many museums to keep tourists and locals occupied. There are beautiful views available from the walkway above the Old Harbour too.
