Hermanus Esplanade SEAFRONT HOLIDAY APARTMENTSTHE WHALE FESTIVAL MONTH IS HERE! The Hermanus Whale Festival is the THE ONLY ENVIRO ARTS FESTIVAL IN SOUTH AFRICA . Everyone this year is urged to to wear green, white and black over the four day festival period. There will be a strong focus on marine life and protection this year. It is held annually (24-27 September 2009) to celebrate the return of the Southern Right whales to the waters of Walker Bay, our magnificent environment and the arrival of Spring! Visitors from all over flock to our seaside resort to exhilarate in the unique natural environment, watch whales, revel in music, comedy and African rhythms throughout the Festival. The festival will once again focus be on our wonderful environment. Educational displays for little festinos and well known guest speakers are just a few of the highlights!
Further highlights of the 2009 festival includes the SAB gig rig where our country greats, Billy Forrest, Sally Vaughn and Bobby Angel will take to the stage on Thursday 24 September. On Friday the Four Kings Comedy show will tickle your funny bone and ABBA Magic will bring the great ABBA hits to life on Saturday. The whales are always the star performers at the Festival and will be joined on land by musicians, crafters, sports celebrities and thousands of people celebrating Spring in the most beautiful place on earth – Hermanus Whale watching and shark cage diving, bird watching and Fynbos hikes, baboons and kayak trips are just some of the adventures available. A new adventure boat has been launched, "The Marine Big 5 Eco Trip". The cost for this amazing trip is: R850.00 p/p. Please feel free to ask our reception to book this trip for you. At The Hermanus Esplanade we still have space in the first 3 weeks of September, perfect time to view the Whales right before the busy festival.
