We leave Cape Town and eventually take the R44 and drive on the edge of the sea past the beaches. Along this route you will encounter dramatic coastlines and beaches, fynbos biosphere, baboons, monkeys, birding and hiking. We go past The Strand and Gordons Bay. Our first stop is at Betty's Bay to view a colony of endangered African penguins.

We continue our tour from Betty's Bay driving towards Hermanus. We could make brief stops along the way. We then arrive in Hermanus one of the most popular tourist destinations in South Africa – famous for having the best whale watching in the world. If you are into canoeing, the Kleinrivier vlei is one of the best places in SA and is only 6 km outside Hermanus towards Gansbaai. Other activities include sand boarding, quad biking and fly fishing. Hermanus also has the most comprehensive collection of internationally acclaimed wines, the red and white wines, found in the largest wine shop in SA in the Wine Village on the corner of R43 and R320 en-route to N2.
