The best part? You can even spot whales and dolphins right from your room! From June to November, these magnificent creatures pass by on their annual migration, making for some unforgettable photographic opportunities.

There’s nothing quite like capturing a whale breaching in the distance from the comfort of your sound-proofed suite.

Perfect Location for Photographers

Great Brak River is the perfect base for photographers looking to capture the diverse beauty of the Garden Route. 

The town is surrounded by a variety of landscapes, from tranquil rivers and sandy beaches to lush forests and mountains. Seebederfie Guesthouse, perched above the coastline, provides easy access to all these stunning locations.

Photographers will particularly love the beach at Suiderkruis, just a short walk from the guesthouse. It offers endless opportunities for seascape photography, especially at sunrise and sunset, when the soft golden light reflects off the water. If you’re lucky, you might even capture dolphins playing in the surf or a whale tail flicking in the distance.

Whale and Dolphin Watching from Your Bed

For photographers interested in wildlife, Seebederfie is a prime location for capturing marine life without even stepping out the door. From June to November, the whale-watching season in Great Brak River is a photographer’s dream.

You can witness Southern Right whales and humpbacks passing by the coastline. With binoculars in one hand and your camera in the other, you won’t want to miss these majestic creatures as they breach and dive.

The dolphin sightings are just as thrilling. Year-round, pods of playful dolphins can often be seen frolicking in the waves, offering photographers the chance to capture their sleek, graceful movements against the backdrop of the endless ocean.
