What to do and see in Hermanus, Western Cape: The Best Things to do Adventurous

December 24, 2021 Leonarda Pillsbury

Beautiful Hermanus is a South African seaside town that’s a popular whale-watching site. An initial visit to the Old Harbour Museum will acquaint you with the area’s rich fishing history and impress you with a massive exhibit of a whale skeleton. With dozens of area vineyards, Hermanus is a great base for a guided wine tasting tour.

I highly recommend heaven and earth horse trails. Janine is an amazing guide who will ensure that all your needs are met, be it fast gallops or relaxed scenic rides. Their horses are in wonderful condition, well schooled and a delight to be with. The scenic sumaridge wine trail is an absolute must. I’ll be back soon! Thanks for having me ????
