Welcome to the Hermanus Harbour Museum information page - in addition to guides like this post we also list a large selection of hotels, B&B's, guesthouses and self-catering establishments. Please view our Hermanus page if you're looking for
Hermanus accommodation. The Old Harbour Museum is right in the hub of Hermanus - in the area of town where everything seems to happen. Today Hermanus is famous for the Hermanus whale watching, but the museum traces the history of Hermanus back to the days when Whale hunting was still permitted here, and even displays a whale skull to illustrate the tale.
A variety of old fishing boats that date back as far as 1850 lie on the old harbour ramp while the old fish drying racks sit on the rocks.
We also offer a varied selection of
South Africa accommodation - let us know where you would like to travel!
