Fortunately now we have no use of a whaling station any extra. There’s not a marketplace for lamp oil, lubricants or cleaning soap comprised of whale oil. However the tour to the derelict Bluff Whaling Station is likely one of the hottest supplied by Durban Strolling Excursions (DWT) and clearly this relic of a now-abandoned business holds a wierd fascination. It’s a must to e book early to get in and it’s all the time booked out, our tour chief, Ruth Hagen, advised me once I went on the tour final November.
That is additionally as a result of pent-up demand: the tour to the whaling station can’t be supplied each month, like most of the different excursions supplied by DWT: permission for each outing must be obtained from the navy, which owns the land. ..
