Introducing Cape St Francis
Cape St. Francis is situated 27 kilometers off the N2 highway. This region of South Africa was occupied more than 10,000 years ago by Khoikhoi and San, and there are still many middens (mounds of refuse e.g. shells, marking early settlements) in the area.
Cape St. Francis has a 3km pristine beach with the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
A walk to the lighthouse of Cape St. Francis or along the beach to Shark Point as well as the many hiking and coastal trails make for great outdoor activities.
Cape St Francis comprises of approximately 350 residential plots, a holiday resort, a comprehensive mini market, restaurants and pubs, a Lighthouse built in1878, which has been declared a national monument, and a world class surf reef and point break.
Having recently celebrated it’s 50 th anniversary, St Francis Bay, on the Eastern Cape coast of South Africa, has come a long way.
Areas starting with the Canals, the Village, Santarene and Port St Francis.
Whereas the Canals and the Village feature mostly thatched homes, Santarene features Spanish and Tuscan style homes. Port St Francis is the most recent property development and features marina flats, townhouses and lots of restaurants, shops and hotels in close proximity.
Nowhere in the whole of South Africa will you find a village as pleasing to the eye, as St Francis Bay. It defies description, and has to be seen to be believed.
The village has evolved out of the vision of a man with an eye for aesthetics.
Leighton Hulett started the town from a fishing camp of thatched rondavels, and friends who came to stay were so enchanted with the place, that they asked to be able to buy a piece of ground to build a place of their own. His insistence on a specific style of architecture, preserving character, ensured the development of a village that is quite unique. It is no ordinary town but a harmonious blend of black and white homes, set against a background of azure sea, linked by canals by a wide river, white beaches and gentle greenery. A Mediterranean section maintains the special quality of the village with its warm coloured walls
