Hermanus Whale Cruises

hermanus whale cruises photos

[South Africa] The sunset is like fog, the waves are like smoke, Hernamus' sea is no different. It is no different to blame the dusk light of that day. I love it. I can't pull out of the whale watching boat to find the southern right whale. When my mother brought my baby near the boat, I was already fainting in the cabin.
