Hermanus - SOUTH AFRICA

Originally settled as a sleepy fishing village, the traveller’s love affair with Hermanus began well over two centuries ago, when the Harley Street doctors of London prescribed its crisp “champagne air” as an excellent remedy for consumption.

By the 1920’s, its reputation as the “Riviera of the South” had been well established and hotels began popping up to accommodate the yearly influx of European tourists. Hermanus has been recognised as being one of the best places in the world for land-based whale watching, thanks to the vantage of its seafront cliffs and the abundance of southern right whales frolicking along the shore.

Today, visitors and locals alike enjoy the many opportunities for recreation and relaxation found in Hermanus.
