I believe that this article fails notability and GNG. Whalecoast is a term invented by a marketing team and is IMO just a marketing term. It hasn't yet obtained the same standing as the Garden Route. None of the individual towns in this article refer to the Whalecoast Gbawden (talk) 10:09, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:GNG. Needs more references to show term's notability. Ping me if any new major refs are presented and I'll reconsider my vote. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 14:15, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I couldn't find any decent references, only tourism marketing sites. The name just refers to the coast of the Overberg region. - htonl (talk) 20:37, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
