A second chance: southern right whales linger in Walker Bay through early October, for guests arriving later in the season.
The whales that gather off Hermanus from winter remain into October, when the crowds have thinned and the days are warming. For guests arriving in spring, it is the quieter, often finer time to make the trip — the same clifftop viewing, with the town at its most relaxed.
As in peak season, we can plan the drive, the timing, and a lunch overlooking the bay.
