The Oystercatcher, Gansbaai, Western Cape

Attractions

The Oystercatcher is the ideal place from which to explore the Western Cape. It is situated 180km from Cape Town, 40km from Hermanus, 20km from Standford and 5km from Gansbaai Town where fresh line fish is always available at the active harbour.

The Winelands are just over an hour's drive away, as are the quaint towns of Baardskeerdersbos, Napier and the southern most tip of Africa at Cape Augulhas.

There is a beautiful hiking trail right in front of the house that winds along the rugged, fynbos lined cliffs overlooking the ocean. Visit nearby Kleinbaai Harbour(10km away) to participate in great white shark cage diving, boat based whale watching or pleasure cruises to the seal colony at Dyer Island.

De Kelders is renowned for some of the best land based whale watching in the world during August to November. The whales come so close to the cliff edge that you will hear them breathing inside the house.
 

Special Features

The house itself is located in the second row from beachfront and within a short walking distance of a pristine nature/marine reserve with white sandy beaches and large open caves of archaeological interest. Breathtaking, unobstructed views of the ocean and mountains less than one minute's walk away. On a clear day, you can even see the whales breach from the comfort of the stoep.
