Sunset Beach, forming part of the CAPE WHALE ROUTE, is a hive of activity between the months of June and November. Our most frequent whale species, namely the Southern Right Whales are easily identifiable by their strong V –shaped air blowing antiques. Whale sighting peak in the months of September and October when calving as well as the mating season takes place. Mating results in the females flapping their fines and tails in lively sequences as they try to fend off unattractive companions. Whales are often seen SPYHOPPING (bringing heads out of water to keep a close eye on the rest of the gang) or BREACHING (the art of hurling their entire 6 tons of mass into thin air with a thunderous landing). |
