Cape St Francis Information Guide

Cape St Francis is a town in South Africa, situated on a headland in the Eastern Cape Province. It is popular for its clean beaches and as a surfing location.

The town is home to a Penguin Rescue and Rehabilitation Center as well as the Seal Point Lighthouse. Cape St Francis, a rustic fishing village is situated ajacent to Port St Francis.
It has the most beautifully pristine beach, a symmetrical curving stretch of gleaming sand in the lee of rolling dunes.

The beach leads your eyes to the lighthouse, built in 1878, which warns ships of the dangerous reefs that stretch more then a kilometre out to sea.

Viewed from the sky, the lighthouse stands on a promontory - thundering waves splashing white foam ribbons on the huge coastal boulders.

Fifteen kilometres west lies Oyster Bay, a hamlet jealously nurtured by the inhabitants. It is possible to walk the rugged coast line from the light house to Oyster Bay and to arrive at the most welcoming beach where the only foot prints may be yours.

Seal Point offers excellent surfing opportunities whilst the beach is the playground of the kite surfers. The rock pools offers fascinating insight into life in the tidal zone.

The Ajubatus Penguin Rescue Centre and the Coffe shop next to the lighthouse is a wothwhile outing for adults and children.
