Get to The Gearings Point - one of the most popular spots for whale watching. Look out at sea as you pan the ocean for any action. Develop some patience and you will reap the rewards.
After viewing the whales head to The Waterfront where there are several restaurants for lunch. You can opt to do boat based whale watching just ask your driver/guide.
After a great day watching the biggest living creatures head out to Benguela Cove. A beautiful winery set in the Benguela cove. A real photographer's paradise.
Sit down and take a sip of some of the finest wines in South Africa. The views ahead of the ocean and the mountains are simply jaw dropping. Other optional activity you can do is a vineyard tour - ask at the reception.

Great Tour Massive Experience
Published on Aug, 2022
As a group of students doing studies on wildlife this was a perfect trip. i led this group from the UK and Raw Tours did not disappoint. We arrived at the gearings point the most vintage point for whale watching but were advised to do the boat based whale watching.
Our guide Eric was swift and smart by arranging that trip with the boat company. And we were taken out at sea deep into the ocean and on the other side of the bay. It was action all the 2 hours till we left. Those huge creations are so graceful in water and very shy also.
We had the opportunity to visit the penguins also at a place called stony beach where we got so close to the African penguins. The drive back - McLaren drive is also an awesome sight.
Great Tour great Experience.
Good experience and i went to alot of activity with this company i think they are the best
