St Francis Bay  characterized by a unique style of architecture and an  extensive canal system linked to the Kromme River estuary offers residents and holiday makers an exotic marina lifestyle. Here, one can experience the pleasures of living right at the waters edge.

The commercial harbour of Port St Francis is  home to the lucrative calamari  industry .Built in 1995, it  has always held a unique charm because of both its size and the constant activity and   is the only national privately owned harbour of its kind, where chokka fleets berth on one side of the harbour while providing anchorage for pleasure craft and ocean going yachts   on the other.

Cape St Francis with its historic lighthouse built in 1878 is a tranquil eco-destination. The pristine beach with mild temperatures and the longest sunshine hours on the South African coast ensures a relaxed all year round destination.

As we are surrounded by nature reserves dune fynbos proliferates in the area and many species are endemic to our local region.  Cape St Francis Resort borders the beach and provides easy access to a variety of activities.

Action or leisure the choices are varied , exciting and endless.Start by  exploring the canals  by boat or venture  onto the Kromme River,  experience golf at  St Francis Links or St Francis Bay, surf the Endless Summer , charter a fishing vessel or simply relax.Whales can be spotted between June and November but sightings tend to peak in the months of September and October when several Southern Right Whales  may be spotted in the bay at any time.

Cape St Francis Resort is the ideal base from which to visit nearby national parks with Tsitsikama to our west and Addo National Park to our east. The thrill of the bungy jump or canopy tours is just an hour away.On our doorstep lies the wilderness area of the Baviaanskloof  so to the bread basket valley of Patensie.
