点评:As part of our tour of the Cape with family from the UK we drove along this scenic coastal drive from Gordon's Bay to Hermanus.
The road follows the coast line and wedged between the Hottentot-Holland Mountains and the sea. You are met with changing vistas around every corner, from rugged cliffs to sandy coves of white sand.
There are numerous beaches to stop off at and enjoy the views across False Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.
Wildlife abounds along this route. Whales are often seen between June and November, and even though it was coming to the end of the season we did see a few whales out in the bay. Fur Seals can also be seen playing along the shoreline on and off the rocks or swimming in the sea and diving down to the Kelp Forests below.
Sea birds abound along the coast. Then there is the penguin colony near Betty's Bay which is worth a quick stop.
We have driven this route a few times and every time there is something new to see. If you are planning a trip to this area of the Cape then this is definitely a drive to add to your itinerary. Especially during the whale migration.

公路沿着海岸线延伸,两侧分别是霍屯督-荷兰山脉和大海。每转过一个弯,映入眼帘的景色就各不相同:有崎岖的悬崖,也有铺满白色沙砾的海湾。
沿途有许多海滩可供停留,您可以尽情欣赏福尔斯湾及大西洋的壮丽景致。
这条路上还栖息着众多野生动物。每年6月至11月期间经常能看到鲸鱼的身影。虽然当时正值季节末,我们还是在海湾中看到了几头鲸鱼。毛皮海豹也时常在海岸边的岩石上嬉戏,或是在海中游弋并潜入下方的海带林中。
沿海地区海鸟众多。贝蒂湾附近还有企鹅栖息地,值得顺道一游。
我们已经沿着这条路线驾车多次,每次都能发现新的景致。如果您正计划前往开普地区的这一地带旅行,那么这段车程绝对值得列入您的行程安排中。尤其是在鲸鱼迁徙的季节。
