Hermanus Sightseeing Day Tour

Hermanus was originally called Hermanuspietersfontein, This popular retirement Town is on the southern coast of the Western Cape and is famous for southern right whale watching during the southern winter and spring. The best time to watch the whales is between June and December. These impressive mammals are now protected as they were hunted in nearby Betty's Bay. The Old Harbour Museum is the place to visit as the exhibitions give the history of the whaling industr., The De Wetshuis Photo Museum has the history of Hermanus depicted by T D Ravenscroft.
