We went on a tour in the afternoon and were lucky. We saw a group whales mating and the boat was able to get pretty close. I did get sick at the end but I think it was because I was looking through my camera the whole time. Crew were very friendly and caring. Would definitely recommend!

The whale watching season was exceptional. It was very crowded. However, the whales delivered. They came out in their numbers and put on a great display. If, you ever near Hermanus during whale watching season. Pop in, it is worth the time to watch these beautiful creatures in their natural environment. Just remember to get a good parking and find yourself a good place by the sea. There is also various activities for kids. And various food stalls.

Amazing experience with these knowledgeable people. The boat was perfect for the watching, and they don't allow too many people on, in order for the guests to be able to move freely around.

The crew is amazing: the spotters know how and where to find the whales, and the crew can tell so many facts about literally everything regarding whales. They are kind and easy to talk to.

Overall we were lucky to see so many whales and seals, and thank these people for that.

Saw a lot of whales! The operator is really knowledgeable and friendly. Told a lot of stories about his adventures and about whales. It felt like a family outing rather than a random tour. Will recommend it even though the fees are on the higher side.

There are many whale watchers you can go to, but these are pretty good actually. A decent ship (catamaran) with a good crew. From our ship we have seen other boats where people were packed. Not here. And worth mentioning... the crew were very respectful for the whales we saw and kept their distance. Do not forget to walk to the edge of the harbour and see the seal colony.
