The Lookout at Whale Cove
B101 Whale Cove, 95 Cliff Street, De Kelders, Western Cape,

Description

Imagine a place where the Atlantic Ocean is your front garden. Where whales play outside your window. Where the sea and stars meet at night. This is The Lookout at Whale Cove, a beautifully-appointed self-catering apartment situated on the De Kelders cliffs.

"..this little town is able to offer some of the world's best boat- and shore-based whale watching and unquestionably the world's best white-shark diving. The sensational marine tourist attractions should not be the only things to lure you, however. Some of the Cape's best-conserved fynbos adorns the mountains in the area and numerous walks and trails criss-cross it...After a week spent wandering the streets of Gansbaai and its surroundings, we can comfortably say that this, truly, is the gem of the Overberg."
