Make the most of your day in Gansbaai, before setting off for your next stop. It’s only a 40-kilometre or 30-minute drive via the R43 to Hermanus, so feel free to tick off all the boxes in Gansbaai before heading to your next accommodation in the whale capital Hermanus. Stay active with a fatbike dune experience or even more exciting; join the Big Five Marine Safari in Walker Bay (close to Gansbaai) to spot penguins, dolphins, seals, whales and marine birds – with a bit of luck and in the right month, you spot them all in this 2-hour boat ride!
