πŸ‘πŸ‘ If you are looking for a great spot to go swimming or just to have a relaxing day on the beach, then make a trip to Kammabaai. The beach cannot accommodate as many people as Grotto Beach (main beach in Hermanus) and it has cliffs on both sides, making it more private and the waters' a bit calmer. Ho...

    If you are looking for a great spot to go swimming or just to have a relaxing day on the beach, then make a trip to Kammabaai. The beach cannot accommodate as many people as Grotto Beach (main beach in Hermanus) and it has cliffs on both sides, making it more private and the waters' a bit calmer. However it is a very popular spot during peak season so make sure you arrive early or else you won't find any parking available. It's great for the whole family as it's basically divided into two smaller bays with some rocks in between where the children like to climb around. It's relatively shallow closer to shore if you just want to wade around, but you can go deeper in if you want to swim - there are also some nice waves for surfers. During peak season there are also lifeguards on duty. This has become my favorite beach in the area and I am sure it will continue to be.

    A quaint and secluded family beach with excellent lifeguards. This breach is frequented by surfers as the rocks form a channel that amplifies the waves and there is a fairly strong current to the far right of the beach that gross paddle out into the deep waves.

    Small beach, lots of rocks. But it has a lovely beach boardwalk that has sercuity guards on it. Pet friendly and safe. The beach and boardwalk was clean. Lots of little up hills and downhills to walk over. Parking wasn't a problem either. Good beach for whale watching in the whale seasons. There are no shops or restaurants along the route.

    kammabaai means not really a bay just like Valsbaai, it was called Nanny beach or Meidenbaai before referring to the maids and nannys taking children there. But thats only because children have a limited space of running around so it is easy to find them, the surf however is dangerous, there are waves coming from odd angles and riptides all the time so be careful

    Kammabaai beach is just a walk around 'the rocks' from VoΓ«lklip beach. There's a Coffee Cafe and Ice cream truck. The Beach is easily accessible, security visible all the time.

    It is a quiet beach away from the huzz & buzz with cliff path taking you either to Grotto Beach or to the new harbour.
