Location & Highlights

Whale Heights isn’t just a house – it’s an experience. From the balcony, you can watch whales breaching during the migration season (June to November), or simply sip your morning coffee while listening to the waves.

The home is located in De Kelders, a quiet coastal village just outside Gansbaai.

You’ll be close to:
Stanford’s Cove – a small, family-friendly beach
Cliff paths that are perfect for walking and whale watching
Gansbaai town – only a few minutes’ drive away for shops, restaurants, and amenities

Whether you’re here to watch the whales, enjoy lazy afternoons around the braai, or simply take in the views from sunrise to sunset, Whale Heights offers a truly unforgettable coastal escape.
