Hermanus Golf Course

Located just 120 kilometres from Cape Town at the southern tip of Africa, the Hermanus Golf Club offers the keen golfer 18 incredible holes of golf. The Hermanus course is set in magnificent scenery with views of the sea and a backdrop of the mountains. Wildlife and natural Cape flora are attractive features and the many trees provide the beauty for ideal golfing terrain.

     

The whale capital Hermanus offers in season, besides golfing, also good whale-watching. When you can't spot whales in the sea, you can watch baboons crossing the fairways.

The Hermanus Golf Club has become one of the most popular golf courses in the country - a definite 'must play' course. The Hermanus Golf Club is a private course, offering privacy to members, yet accessibility to the public.
