Itinerary

On arrival in Hermanus you will embark on a 2 hour boat-based whale watching experience. what you will see is The Southern Right Whale , a baleen whale, which means that instead of teeth it has long plates hanging from the top jaw.

The Southern Right Whale was so named during the time when they were still hunted. They were referred to as the "right" whales to kill because they would float when dead which made it easy for the whalers to find them in the ocean and transport them back to the whaling station. These whales have a large amount of oil (also called blubber) and baleen.
