Marebella is perfectly situated for Great White shark cage diving, as well as whale watching between June and December.

We invite you to experience the warm, relaxed atmosphere at Marebella Seafront Guesthouse in De Kelders, near Gansbaai. Accommodation in spacious guest rooms on the seafront, overlooking Walker Bay and the cliffs of De Kelders, 3km from Gansbaai. Mediterranean living meets South African hospitality with all rooms having 180 degree uninterrupted panoramic seaviews of Walker Bay. See photos of the guest rooms and house interior in our photo gallery. There are many activities to enjoy in De Kelders, Gansbaai and our area of the Overberg, which is still largely undiscovered by most South Africa tourists.

De Kelders is the best natural land based whale watching area in the world for Southern Right Whales as they return to Walker Bay each year in greater numbers from July to December. Walk the elevated De Kelders cliff path and witness the whales playing with the kelp (seaweed), sailing, lobtailing, spyhopping, mating or breaching in Walker Bay. Or watch the whales from your room, private terrace or from the upstairs pool deck (more whale watching information here…).
