Always amazing to have them back in Hermanus! 💙
🐋 WHOOP WHOOP! THEY’RE BACK! 🌊
The Southern Right Whales have officially arrived in Walker Bay, Hermanus — and whale season has begun!
There’s nothing quite like that first sighting of these gentle ocean giants returning to our coastline each winter. From spectacular breaches to moms and calves cruising close to shore, the magic of Hermanus whale season is here once again.
Grab your camera, take a walk along the famous cliff paths, and keep your eyes on the ocean… the whales are back in town! 🐳💙
📍 Walker Bay, Hermanus
