Fish HoekIn 1652 the indigenous population of Fish Hoek was forced to move by the arrival of the European settlers. However, it wasn't until 1918 that it became a township. Between 1817 and 1868 the female Humpback and Southern Right Whales were attacked and killed by the open boat whalers when they arrived at Fish Hoek to calve. Fortunately all whaling was eventually closed down and today whales can be seen from August to the end of November. However, they sometimes arrive as early as June to calve.Fish Hoek is conveniently located for all types of tourist attractions and activities, it also has some of the best swimming beaches in the Cape.
