Pearly Beach is a village in Overberg District Municipality in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. An area where the southern right whale comes to calve and mate along its migratory route. These whales can be seen with their young all along the coastline with Walker Bay just a short distance away. The area is home to the threatened African oystercatcher which can be seen on the rocky coasts, beaches and at lagoons eating limpets and mussels. It is close to Bantamsklip which was a proposed site of a nuclear power station. However, Thyspunt in the Eastern Cape seems to be the most likely location.
