This is home to the beautiful, gentle sea giants when they arrive in the winter months. Southern right whales visit our bay annually between the months of May and November. Hermanus is home to the world’s only whale crier, whom uses a kelp horn to help tourists find the whales. For the golfing enthusiast there are 2 famous golf courses to keep busy, or just relax and have a good time. Welcome to Aristata Accommodation Website. We offer accommodation in the Hermanus area.
