GARDEN ROUTE: easiest places in the world to see whales and dolphins from land

The Garden Route's coast is one of the best and easiest places in the world to see whales and dolphins from land. Robberg Beach is a top location to see exhilarating acrobatics from southern right whales. Look out for
60 tons of raw power doing headstands within splashing distance of the shore.

 The Hermanus Whale Festival is held in October to celebrate their return to Walker Bay. If you want to come closer, at Plettenberg Bay there are whale-watching trips by boat.
