HERMANUS WHALE WATCHING
From July to December whales can be seen at the shores of South Africa. Approximately an hour and a half away from Cape Town is the seaside town of Hermanus. A popular holiday destination for tourists and locals alike, Hermanus is hailed as offering the best land based whale watching in the world. From May onwards Southern Right Whales pay homage to these warm, shallow waters in order to calf their young and to mate. The best time for whale watching is between August and November and at this time the bay is dotted with whales. More often than not, they're more than happy to put on a performance.

MONKEY TOWN
Monkey Town Primate Centre was started on the 1st of December 2000 by the owner and animal lover Roseline Grobler, who met and fell in love with her first monkey Cebus a Brown Capuchin about 20 years ago. Cebus was an abused capuchin and since then Roseline has never look back. She has rescued and adopted 270 monkeys since then. She started Monkey Town Primate Centre to give the public a chance to experience the wonderful world of monkeys and to help in preserving this wonderful species for our future generations.
