Remember The Past

The Old Harbour Museum is situated in the centre of the village at the site of the old harbour, formerly known as "Visbaai" ("Fish Bay"). The indoor museum houses exhibitions on natural history with whales being the dominant feature, together with aquariums with fishes and inter-tidal creatures and a display of antique fishing paraphernalia. The surrounding cliffs form an excellent spot from which to do land-based whale-watching and huge crowds can often be seen, indicating whales at play right in the bay. At easter times a play commerating the Passion is presented against the stunning backdrop.
