Famous for its exceptional whale sightings, perpetual holiday atmosphere and wide range of lovely Hermanus accommodation, this Garden Route town has much to offer its visitors.

The town lies less than two hours from Cape Town, along a glorious stretch of coastal road. During the months from August to November, Whale Season brings many visitors to Hermanus for land and boat-based viewing of these gentle giants. The annual Hermanus Whale Festival is a favourite with locals and international visitors alike, hosted in celebration of the town’s noteworthy marine residents.

But there is far more than just the rich marine life to enjoy here – you can also stroll through the beautiful Harold Porter Botanical Gardens, sit and relax on the Village Greens as you listen to live Marimba music or explore the rest of the Garden Route or try some adventure sports if you’re keen for something more energetic.

Browse our accommodation in Hermanus to find your holiday home by the sea, for your own Garden Route adventure.
