Hermanus, probably the most well-known town on the Whale Coast, is also the largest and is spread out along magnificent cliffs on Walker Bay.

The walk along the 14 kilometre cliff path is spectacular, especially during whale season, earning the village the reputation of offering the best land-based whale-watching in the world.
