Whale watching

Whale watching

One of the most popular activities in Cape Town.

Whale watching is a popular activity in Cape Town, South Africa, as the city is located in the heart of the Whale Coast. The area is home to several different whale species, including southern right whales, humpback whales, and killer whales. The best time to go whale watching in Cape Town is between June and December when the whales migrate to the area to mate and calve. There are many companies that offer whale-watching tours, which typically last for a few hours and include a trip out to sea on a boat. The tours are led by experienced guides who provide information about the whales and the surrounding marine life. Whale watching is a popular activity for both locals and tourists and is a great way to experience the beauty of the Atlantic Ocean.
