Description

I have been in property in St Francis bay for the past 25 years. My motivation was to share the experiences and the family lifestyle that we are privileged to have in our village.. I have achieved this in many ways over the years and have thoroughly enjoyed the years of meeting and assisting families with their holiday or permanent homes. Many of these families are now good friends. We have seen our special place grow and become one of the loveliest coastline destinations in South Africa, still to be discovered by many.

Description

St Francis Bay is a holiday village in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa, roughly one hour’s drive from Port Elizabeth. The building style of the village includes white painted houses with black roofs (either thatch or tiled roofs) on the canals or around the golf course, or a Mediterranean building style in Santareme and Port St Francis. The Kromme River is navigable for 10 km upstream, and is linked to the St Francis canals system.
Whales can be spotted in the Bay from May to late October and dolphins can be seen daily on their way back and forth between the bays of Cape St Francis and Jeffrey’s Bay. Bird life is abundant with over 200 species recorded in the area including the rare African oystercatcher and fish eagle.
Port St Francis includes a commercial and recreational harbour, built to host the squid industry freezing vessels, as well as a small harbour resort village. It lies in a sheltered nook of the bay and provides a safe anchorage for the boats, pleasure craft, and oceangoing yachts. St Francis Field is an airpark close to the Port that caters for those who wish to fly in.
Cape St Francis, a rustic fishing village, sits adjacent to St Francis Bay. Popular for surfing at Seal Point, its beautiful stretch of beach and the historic lighthouse, built in 1878. Walking trails wind along the rocky coast, through the Irma Booysen Floral Reserve, and along the Cape St Francis point links it to the village of St Francis Bay.
