The Marine Biologist and crew on board will provide in-depth information about the abundance of marine species that may be seen as well as the challenges that marine species face based on their ongoing research.
We return to the land and you are treated to a cup of wonderful hot vegetable soup and rolls to settle your "sea legs". From Gansbaai we travel back along the coastline to Hermanus which is recognized as one of the premier land-based Whale Viewing areas in the world. Spend some time on the Whale Walk built along the 30 meter (90 foot) high cliffs and watch the Southern Right Whales playing in the ocean below, sometimes within a few meters of the cliffs.
