Hermanus was today's destination in our drive around the Western Cape. We followed the route by the water and the smell of the ocean is quite a change from the roses and rosemarys. Once a small fishing village, it has now become a major resort because of the presence of large numbers of southern right whales from June to early December. As it was a Sunday, the beaches were full. We found a beautiful open restaurant right on the waterfront and enjoyed mussels cooked in sauvignon blanc with lots of thyme, celery, and onions.
You can dive here, kayak, rent a boat and go fishing or just do some crayfishing. We were welcomed by a group of seals as the whales are no longer around.
