Gansbaai
Gansbaai is a fishing town on the Overberg coast associated with marine wildlife trips. Nearby Klipgat Cave and Walker Bay Nature Reserve add a quieter coastal and archaeological dimension.
Why go
The area offers more than a shark-focused boat outing. Klipgat Cave holds evidence of early human occupation near De Kelders, while the Walker Bay coast gives the trip a land-based counterpart. Marine wildlife sightings vary, so the coastal setting and history are reasons to come in their own right.
What to look for
The fishing-town setting on the Overberg coast.
Klipgat Cave near De Kelders and its archaeological significance.
The shore landscape of Walker Bay Nature Reserve.
Useful to know
Check current conditions with any marine operator before building the day around a boat trip.
Keep time for the coast and Klipgat Cave as a separate land-based outing.
