Immerse yourself in the Hermanus lifestyle

Hermanus, the world's premier whale-watching destination, is often described as the Riviera of South Africa. Whale Bay Cascades offers access to many local attractions including pristine white beaches and clifftop pathways. Visit the historic Old Harbour, trawl the boutiques and stalls, frequent the superb restaurants and discover the Walker Bay Wine Route and its award-winning wines.

Immerse yourself in natural beauty

An investment in Whale Bay Cascades is an investment in the environment.

Enjoy living in a private estate which complements its surroundings. Outdoor enthusiasts can relax by catch-and-release fishing for cob or haarders in their very own unique salt water lagoon, or take a refreshing swim in the pool. Jog around the secure 1 km wheelchair-friendly pathways surrounding the lagoon, or hike along the many outdoor trails. Take your boat out for whale-watching or deep sea fishing, or take pleasure in a round of golf at the premier 27-hole course at Hermanus Golf Club.

Whale Bay Cascades' Recreational Centre offers a swimming pool with unique water features, a squash court and fitness centre, while the kitchen and service area make this the perfect venue for functions.

A "one of a kind" lagoon

Whale Bay Cascades' lagoon is deemed to be the only one of its kind in the world. An expected 3 to 8 million litres (per hour) of outbound rinsing seawater from the adjacent abalone farms is used to create the cascades and lagoon that will progressively, over the next 2 years, form a complete marine eco-system. An internationally recognised marine expert will be doing a case study on the development of the lagoon and its marine life as it progresses. In her words: "An investment in Whale Bay Cascades is an investment in the environment."

Immerse yourself in an exquisite seaside lifestyle

All of the architect-designed, superior-built homes (on single residential erven with separate title deeds) at Whale Bay Cascades overlook the ocean, the lagoon or both. Inspired by the flow of the water, the architecture ensures a luxurious, comfortable, relaxed style of living.

All of the residences feature an exceptionally high standard of quality finishes and are DSTV-, Intercom- and Internet-enabled and fitted with an oven, hob and extractor, fridge, microwave and dishwasher. An elegantly designed, 360? view, imported pneumatic vacuum elevator (European Community standard of approval), large enough to accommodate an occupied wheelchair and one additional person, features in most of the homes.

Safety is key throughout. With a 3 m high perimeter wall, 24-hour security reception, fibre-optic interconnectivity cabling, biometric readers and thermal cameras, Whale Bay Cascades offers the perfect, secure, lock-up-and-go lifestyle.
