It's the best time of the year for whale watching. Take a trip out to Gansbaai, stop for wine and food in @hermanuswines and @stanfordwineroute in between whale watching and exploring this beautiful coast line. This image was captured by @lifeofchristaylor off the Gansbaai coast. ・・・ So stoked that I managed to capture this! Two Southern Right Whales swimming side by side near Gansbaai 🐳 thanks to Ivanhoe Sea Safaris for the trip! #visitwinelands #capewhalecoast #wintergetaway #visitsawinelands #wowsouthafrica #discoverctwc #whalewatching #whales #adventurer #winetourism
