Celebrating the Whale Coast as a culinary destination

It’s no mystery why visitors flock to the Cape Whale Coast – pristine natural scenery, quaint villages, ‘Champagne air’, mountains, fynbos, beaches, whales.

Whether it’s locals from bigger cities on a weekend breakaway, a family on vacation, international adventure seekers on tour, or our ‘swallows’ on their annual migration from the northern hemisphere, no one visits the Whale Coast without leaving a part of their heart behind.

Our tourist offering has grown exponentially over the years, with a wide variety of accommodation options and a myriad attractions and activities, including exploring our towns and browsing unique speciality shops, hiking in our nature reserves, kayaking on our lagoons, sunbathing, swimming and surfing at our Blue Flag beaches, cycling through our wine valley, ziplining through the forest or exploring our ocean and getting up close and personal with our Big Five marine life.
