Whale Watching on the Garden Route

Whale watching near George offers a quieter, more flexible way to experience the Garden Route’s annual marine spectacle. While George itself sits slightly inland, it’s perfectly positioned between some of the region’s best whale-watching spots, including Herolds Bay, Victoria Bay and Mossel Bay, where southern right whales can often be seen close to shore during the season.

Staying in George gives you the advantage of a central base with a wide range of accommodation, restaurants and easy access via the airport, while still being just a short drive from multiple coastal viewpoints.

This means you can follow the whales along the coastline, choosing the best conditions each day, all while enjoying the comfort and convenience of one of the Garden Route’s most well-connected towns.
