Infos

<p>Set along the cliffs between mountain and sea, Hermanus is one of the most<br><br>popular holiday and travel destinations in South Africa. Initially it was the<br><br>abundance of fish in Walker Bay, along which the village rapidly grew, that<br><br>attracted holidaymakers. Today, the stars of the bay are undoubtedly the<br><br>Southern Right Whales that migrate from Antarctica to mate and calve here<br><br>during the winter months.<br><br>But it is not only the wonders of the sea that draw thousands of visitors<br><br>to this picturesque village and surrounds year after year. Mountains, fynbos,<br><br>culture, arts, crafts, country markets, adventure sports, scenic walks, golf courses,<br><br>nature reserves, shark-cage diving, historical landmarks, and the vineyards<br><br>and world-class wines of the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley are richly described and<br><br>illustrated in this lavish volume.<br><br>With chapters covering all aspects of the towns diversity, the reader will learn<br><br>more about all that is so generously on offer here, and also catch a rare glimpse<br><br>of the heart that drives the town: the people and communities that have shaped<br><br>this favoured destination.<br><br>An earlier edition of Hermanus appeared in 2008. Now republished as a new<br><br>title, the book features entirely rewritten text and fresh photographs throughout,<br><br>many commissioned especially for this edition.</p>
