Whales and wine weekend… doesnt that sound like it could pass as a ‘www’ (lots-of-fun.com) weekend!?!? And that you could do this as a cheeky long weekend away from London? Fly out Thursday evening and be watching whales over the rim of your Sauvignon Blanc by Friday lunchtime? Well you can!
During the months from about June to November the Southern Right Whales come into the Hermanus bay to calf and you can be spoilt with amazing land based whale watching experiences. The whales can actually be found all along the coastline, but Hermanus offers some of the best and easiest viewing points – plus they even have a ‘Whale Festival’ the last week of September to celebrate these amazing gentle sea giants.
A visit to the Cape however is not complete without some wine sampling and we have coupled up your 3 night escape from London with a night in Franschhoek to end off a great weekend!
