Situated at the gateway to the Garden Route, 100km from Port Elizabeth, Cape St Francis is neighbour to one of South Africa's foremost residential marina developments, St Francis Bay, a sophisticated holiday town with many shops, pubs and restaurants, constructed in and around the largest man-made web of canals and waterways in Africa.

Tucked away between two capes and two protected bays, Cape St Francis has a 16 km stretch of pristine beach that features an open estuary. This excellent eco-destination has rivers to explore and glorious sandy beaches.

St Francis plays host to many exciting festivals including the popular Calamari Festival during late September and the Port St Francis triathlon in December.
