Reasons To
Visit South Africa

  • Self Drive

    The most economical and by far the most popular way to experience South Africa is on a self drive. The roads are good, traffic tends to be light and driving is on the left.

  • Wine Tasting

    Within easy driving distance of Cape Town, the valleys of Paarl, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek have become known as 'The Winelands'. Here you can admire the manicured rows of green and russet vines and even stop to sample the local tipple.

  • Cape Town

    Cape Town – one of the world’s great cities, Cape Town has excellent accommodation, is easy to explore and is the gateway to the Wine Regions and Garden Route. Cape Town is an ideal place to start your trip around South Africa.

  • Whale Watching

    Hermanus and Walker Bay, near Cape Town, are perhaps the best places in the world to spot whales from the shore (Jun-Dec). Whale watching trips from boats are also popular in South Africa.

  • Battlefields

    Learn how Ghandi, Paul Kruger and Winston Churchill were all involved in the battle of Spioenkop, during the Boer War, or how a hundred British soldiers held off some 4,000 Zulus at Rorke’s Drift, and how nearly 1,800 were killed a few hours earlier at the battle of Isandlwana.

La Fontaine

The Whale Coast, The Cape Region & Winelands

Only metres from the cliff tops which over look the whales below La Fontaine occupies an enviable position in Hermanus as it is also within walking distance of the restaurants and shops.

To the front of the house is a pool and a veranda that looks out onto Walker Bay where you can relax and watch the whales from the privacy of the guest house.

There is a comfortable lounge area from which Gail, the manageress, will be more than happy to talk you through the long list of activities you can do around Hermanus other than whale watching.

The five rooms all differ, but the two upstairs boast sea views where you can watch the whales from your balcony but all the rooms are en-suite with air conditioning, tea and coffee and wi-fi should you need it.
