Southern Right Whales Return to Cape Town.

Every year in June the ocean is a buzz with activity. The Gentle Giants of the ocean return to our shores once again. These colossal creatures of the ocean have spent the summer feeding in the cold icy waters near the Antarctic and return to our shores every winter to mate.

With summer approaching many people descend on beaches around South Africa.  It is also the season for yellow tail runs in Cape Town.  All the sudden increased activity in the water lures curious sharks closer to shore to see what all the fuss is about.
