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.

 
Dovecote Cottage Is Your Home Away From Home

Why not find affordable accommodation in Hermanus and take the whole family on a whale watching adventure?  Dovecote Cottage is just the place you are looking for when it comes to family-friendly self-catering accommodation. The spacious one-bedroom cottage in Flower Street is set in a private walled-in garden, a short stroll from the beach and majestic cliffs that offer some of the best whale watching opportunities in the world. Hermanus’ shops and restaurants are conveniently situated close to Dovecote Cottage, and the Overberg’s many tourist destinations such as the Hemel-en-Aarde wine route, are a short drive away.
