Hermanus is an ocean spot on the Walker Bay coast, east of the town center. The rocky coast with beach sections offers wave conditions for advanced riders. Hermanus is world-famous for southern right whale watching (June-November). The spot is more exposed than the lagoon and suits experienced riders.
Works in SE and ESE from October to March. Rocky coast creates interesting waves. Tide affects access to beach sections. Best at mid-tide.
