Cape Town skyline changed forever

On 22 August 2010, Cape Town saw the demolition of the well known Athlone Cooling Towers, also known as the "Salt and Pepper Pot" which formed part of the Cape Town skyline for almost 50 years.

The event caused great excitement and drew record crowds on a dreary winters day.

Whale breach on to private yacht in South Africa

"He was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. The whale probably had no idea the yacht was there. When we go out to study whales and they come close we run the engines and they can hear us, but that was a sail boat, so perhaps the whale didn't hear it at all," she said.

Wcisel said southern right whales don't use sonar as they feed on krill, but they have good hearing. The accident may relate to visibility.

"Possibility the water may have been too dark for the whale to see the boat, but I've never heard of this happening in South Africa," she said.

Come see the Whales in SA! I am ready to assist you to plan your Whale watching vacation! :-)

Whale Watching in South Africa

The best time for whale watching in South African waters is from June to November along the Cape south coast. Peak calving season is July and August, but whales can be seen through September and October.

South Africa is one of the best destinations worldwide for watching marine mammals, whether from land or from boats, with spectacular annual visits from southern right and humpback whales and enormous pods of dolphins year-round.

Every year, southern right whales migrate from their icy feeding grounds off Antarctica to warmer climates, reaching South Africa in June. The country's coastal waters teem with the giant animals, mating, calving and rearing their young - and giving whale-watchers spectacular displays of raw power and elegant water acrobatics.

The southern right's breeding ground is the sheltered bays of the Western Cape coast, with the majestic animals spending up to five months a year here. They pass their time playing, courting, and nursing their newborn calves, providing spectacular land-based viewing.

I am ready to plan your South African dream vacation :)
