People tend to think predominantly of the Cape Peninsula and Hermanus as the places to watch whales. There's good reason for that -they are incredible places to observe the Southern Right Whale between June and November. However there are other whale wathcing opportunities around South Africa and Mozambique.

The St Lucia tourism board are operating frequent excursions out to see to watch the Southern Right Whales traveling through St Lucia en route to the warmer Mozambiquan waters to give birth. The tours last two hours but will take three hours of your time because the trip out and back in are a half hour each.

So don't miss out on this lovely and rare opportunity to see these majestic creatures in their natural environment.
