WHALE WATCHING
A Whale Of A Heritage Route
The historical section of the Route starts immediately north of and either side of of Albertyn Road in Muizenberg and ends at the Cape Point lighthouse.
The Muizenberg section of the Route offers a guided walking tour of historical Muizenberg ie the old Village. A second walk incorporates Main Road with emphasis on The Historical Mile. A slow trip from Kalk Bay to Muizenberg on a traditional fishing boat offers a unique offshore platform to view attractions.
In Muizenberg you will have the opportunity to experience quaint and in some cases unique heritage dating from the stone-age through to 1673 and the 1930s. The Muizenberg walks are about 2 hours each and start near Surfer's Corner where according to legend, surfing started in South Africa during World War 1.
Guided walks are also available in Kalk Bay, Fish Hoek Valley, Glencairn and Simon's Town.
Also available is a Muslim Trail, the Stone Age & Quena Trail.
Historical Adventure-Races are another option (for team building purposes as an example).
The whale spotting section of the Route starts at offshore Strandfontein. |
