Micro-lighting near Cape Town and Hermanus is an incredible experience, with the added bonus of Whale watching from the sky (during whales season - June to end of Nov each year). This airbourne adventure can zip you down to sea level or a km into the air. AMAZING! Flights done all year round.

Itinerary

Day 1

Micro-lighting and 3 seater Cessna airplane flights are a fabulous way to view Walker Bay and Hermanus. The beauty of being in a powered aircraft is that you are able to descend very close to the terrain and sea, or rise up into the cloud base. Between June and December you will definitely see many Southern Right Whales playing in Walker Bay and all year round you will witness seals, sharks and occasionally dolphin. Infact your pilot is also employed to do the weekly whale count for the Hermanus Times newspaper, with a record breaking 196 whales being spotted in just ONE day in October 2008. What with the vast mountain range of the Klein Riviers, the Hermanus lagoon, beaches, farmland, wine farms and wild natural open spaces below you, the flight and scenery is incredible. Flights done all year round.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
