Walker Bay offers some of the world’s best land-based whale-watching. In late September, when the Hermanus Whale Festival celebrates peak season for Southern Right whales breaching close to shore. If you’re keen to spot some whales, land-based whale watching is about as un-invasive as it gets. Hermanus even has its own ‘whale crier’, who helpfully roams around blowing on a kelp horn to alert you to sightings! 📯

One of the ways the Walker Bay Conservancy team ex One of the ways the Walker Bay Conservancy team excites landowners about the conservation work being done and the biodiversity on their property, is through conducting bioblitz surveys on properties within the Conservancy. Each month, a different property is surveyed to scrutinise the property with a holistic conservation lens - this month it is Coot Club. 🌿🌿🌿

Biodiversity is documented, invasive plant species are mapped, fine scale vegetation maps are generated, and a report is compiled for each property. This also includes management recommendations, inclusive of fire management, reforestation and alien invasive plant species management. This valuable data will be used in compiling a management plan for the Walker Bay Fynbos Conservancy. 🍃🍃🍃

We know that a memorable getaway hinges on the pow We know that a memorable getaway hinges on the power of a remarkable coffee. That’s why we use only the best beans for the job! ☕☕☕

Mikro Coffee Co, located in Hermanus, was born out of great appreciation for the humble coffee bean and a need to produce coffee from which that devotion would be evident. Their founder and roaster are both qualified chefs and applied their combined skills into roasting, tasting and blending beans from across the globe in order to produce something that’s more than the sum of its parts. Everything is done by hand, in small batches to ensure quality and consistency that’s scarce in an age pressed for time. 👌

Caracals are medium sized, reddish in colour, powe Caracals are medium sized, reddish in colour, powerfully built cats with strong legs, large paws and distinctive long hair tuffs on their ear tips. Caracals are unique, and have evolved specialised adaptations, including their strongly patterned face for visual communication. Their powerful hindlegs allow Caracals to launch themselves 3 metres into the air to catch a bird in flight. In the wild, like most other solitary wild cats, they are elusive, nocturnal and generally go unnoticed by humans. 🐾

At Coot Club, this trend has been bucked, with our Caracals deciding humans are no longer a threat, and it’s safe to hunt during the day. We have been taken by surprise at the unusually high population density, both around Coot Club and in our 1,000 acre conservation area. 🐾
 
Caracal sightings at Coot Club have become common, averaging 3-4 sightings a week, with the bulk of those sightings being in broad daylight. In the immediate area around Coot Club, we have a mum with three kittens of around ten months old, a second mum with a litter of two very young kittens, and a third young female who spends the early mornings hunting guinea fowl and yellow billed ducks in front of the boathouses. The territorial male in our area covers all three females; he is in his prime. 🐾

The density of Caracals at Coot Club can be attributed to the abundance of their favourite food and a lack of competition for that food source, including game birds, cape golden moles and small antelope. Importantly, the Caracal here have no reason to fear humans, their environment is intact, and there is no pressure on them from poaching or encroachment. 🐾

Caracal were revered by the ancient Egyptians, and if you are privileged enough to view one of these majestic cats up close in their natural environment, you understand why they were portrayed in bronze as elegant hieratic figures, sitting upright as guardians of tombs within the pyramids. 🐾
