Cape Town Sunset Cruise and Whale Watching Aboard Tigger 2
October is a magnificent time to be in the ‘Mother City,’ Cape Town. As the Spring melts into summer, just a month or two away, and the days get warmer, there is a tangible air of anticipation of the holiday season to come.
For some, though, there is a tinge of sadness, because one of the greatest attractions of the Cape coastline is nearing its end. Yes, this is the last month to enjoy the Whale Watching Season, and the best way to do it is aboard a luxury cruising yacht known as Tigger 2 Royale, where you can experience Whales, wine and a wind-down on a Cape Town sunset cruise!
Whale Watching Season in Cape Town
Running from June to November, the whale watching season on the Western Cape coastline is something to behold, particularly the Southern Right Whales, which you can see between August and October.
These creatures, alongside migrating Humpback Whales and the resident Bryde’s Whales, arrive at the sheltered bays to mate, calve, and nurse their young. The sightings are often close enough to view directly from the shore, but the best way to get up close and personal with the Whales is to be on the water, like on a cruise aboard Tigger 2.
Relax Aboard a Luxury Cape Town Yacht
Tigger 2 Royale is a luxury yacht that offers the best of everything, including wonderful hospitality. You are welcomed aboard for your sunset cruise with a glass of bubbly, and it is a five-star experience all the way from the moment you step aboard. Many satisfied celebrities have testified to this!
Now it is time to go up on deck and feel the wind caress your hair as you set out to see the whales on your way to the spot where you will, after the sightings, enjoy a Cape Town sunset. This will either be anchored at Clifton 4th Beach, or Blaauwberg Bay past renowned Robben Island.
It is a feeling of complete relaxation as you see not only the whales frolicking like children, but possibly a whole range of other marine life too. It is a unique and special way to become one with their world.
Experience a Cape Town Sunset Cruise
Now you arrive at your destination, drop anchor, recharge your glasses, and unwind as you view one of the most spectacular sunsets you will ever experience. The sky is awash with splendid hues of orange, pink and red as the golden globe of the sun slowly sinks into the Atlantic Ocean.
It is a fitting climax to an unforgettable day, and any stress you may have had has by now slipped into the deep blue waters along this magnificent Cape.
