Why go to St Francis Bay?

Approximately half of the St Francis is constructed around the largest man made web of canals and waterways in Africa. The Kromme River, noted for the wild flowers growing along its banks, winds its way to the ocean and provides a paradise for anglers, canoeists, windsurfers and boaters.

Nature lovers could lose themselves in the natural beauty of the area, with superb hiking and biking trails in the nature reserve, along the dune river system or the vast white beaches. Bird life is abundant in the St Francis Bay area. The waters of the bay are world-famous for their perfect surfing waves and are ideally suited to almost any type of water-sport. Dolphins and whales certainly seem to think so as they play in the water alongside the surfers.

St Francis Bay also boasts some of the finest rock and surf angling along the east coast. Adjacent to St Francis Bay is the rustic fishing village of Cape St Francis, with its beautiful beach and historic lighthouse.
