Hawston, Hermanus

This traditional fishing village has grown into a beautiful suburb of Hermanus. Located to take advantage of exceptional panoramic views of the ocean and mountains. The lagoon at Hawston is home to prolific birdlife as well as kite-surfers and the small natural harbor is frequented by the fisherfolk. The pristine Blue Flag beach offers white soft sand that shimmers under the African and angling from the beach is a major pastime for residents and visitors alike.

Hawston has a primary as well as a secondary school to cater for families with school-going children. The entire community celebrates life annually with the Hawston Sea Festival - a seafood festival in true Hawston style. The warm hospitality of the community ensure one will find a corner store for small items needed and might very well include the odd pop-up shop to sell toffee apples reminiscent of years gone by.
