Pet-Friendly Accommodation in Hermanus this Whale Season
One of the best times of the year to visit Hermanus is during the annual whale season.
Whale Season In Hermanus
Whale season runs from June to December and is a time when southern right whales migrate from the cold Arctic waters to calve, mate and generally have a good time in Walker Bay, and the surrounding southern African ocean.
Although this year’s whale festival won’t be taking place in its usual form because of regulations regarding the size of public gatherings, we can still welcome our gentle giants back to Hermanus after their long trip from the Antarctic.
