Hermanus Whale Cruises

Had the most amazing experience with this company!

Despite the harsh conditions (strong winds and currents) they still dared to take us out. Before going on the boat, they explained that it's never a certainty to see the whales. When a whale is seen, they're only allowed to go as close as 50 metres (whale might get closer to the boat, but not the other way around).

When we got out onto the ocean, we eventually got surrounded with whales! We saw about 8 in total, and spend about 20 minutes in between te whales. All in all the whole cruise took about 1.5/2 hours.

We had a great time, we saw a whale, and it breached (the guide said this was likely down to the incoming bad weather). Bit of a tricky thing to review as you're completely at the mercy of the whales. We book with these guys last minute as our original booking was cancelled as they said bad weather was coming. The guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable.

Crew was very enthusiastic and spotted quite a few whales. Saw a total of 5 whales and a handful of seals as well. Weather conditions weren't great but still had a good time nonetheless.

Friendly helpful crew, we were lucky to have good weather conditions we saw at least 2 whales.
The number of guest was too much for the size of the boat, yes everyone has a seat but when it comes to watching the whales standing around, the place was crowded and many didn't have the chance to watch "comfortably" and get good pictures.
They didn’t serve any thing not even water but also we didn’t ask if they have anything on board.

Price is high. 1200Rand for just going near whales and no too close .. just like wrapped up the boat trip about 40 mins and too many people onboard which feels the price is too high. Whales weren't too far to watch, just in 20 mins we were around whales so not price worthy.
