Refresh at 50 Whale Rock is located in Hermanus, a popular holiday town on the southern coast of the Western Cape. The town is world-famous for having fantastic land and boat-based whale watching from June to November. Hermanus holds an array of exciting natural, cultural, and historical activities that make it well worth a visit. The Old Harbour Museum depicts the whaling industry, De Wetshuis Photo Museum portrays the history of Hermanus, and the Whale Museum features a whale skeleton and shows an audio-visual presentation of whales and dolphins twice daily. Hermanus has an exquisite backdrop of mountainous areas carpeted in pristine Cape fynbos. These hills are riddled with walking and hiking trails, and attract paragliders and hang-gliders from around the world. Other activities in Hermanus include tennis, squash, bowls, canoeing, yachting, diving, surfing, fishing, diving, and shark cage diving in the nearby village of Gansbaai.
