With Algoa Bay being the Bottlenose Dolphin Capital of the World, guests can occasional­ly enjoy seeing dolphins jump, play, spin and surf the waves while passing by. During the year between the months of June and January guests can enjoy whale-watching. In June you can see the Humpback whales moving through the sea as they head up to the east coast of Africa towards their breeding grounds. In November and December, they can be seen on their journey home with their new-born calves in tow.

In the months of July to October the Southern Right Whales enter the safety of the bay to give birth to their little ones.

With the resort being on the humpback migration route, Raggy Charters has once again looked to The Willows to host the Welcoming the Whales to Algoa Bay Festival. Come and show your support to these magnificen­t creatures on Sunday, June 4 when The Willows open their resort and hearts to the public.

The Willows offers a unique holiday experience that caters to all your needs. Whether you’re looking for a camping adventure, a selfcateri­ng escape, a corporate retreat, or a romantic wedding venue, The Willows has it all.
