South Town: South Africa, Garden Route, St. Francis BaySt Francis Bay is truly a paradise for golf and water-sport enthusiasts. Windsurfing, water skiing, snorkelling, swimming, sunbathing, exploring the canals by canoe and diving are only a few of the activities that can be enjoyed by the whole family.The emphasis is on outdoor life, with the bracing sea air, sunshine and unspoilt surroundings. Fishing in the deep sea, the river, the surf and from the rocks are all exciting possibilities with bait being plentiful while the waters teem with many “good eating” and game fish. For land-based activities there are 2 Golf Courses, The newly opened exclusive ST Francis Links which is considered to be the closest to a Scottish links to be found anywhere in South Africa and the St Francis Bay Golf Club in the village centre. One can also take a leisurely horseback ride along the pristine white beaches of the bay, or through the hills colourfully clothed in rare Cape coastal fynbos. There are active bowls, squash and tennis clubs. St Francis also plays host to some of the most fun filled festivals including the Easter Affair, the popular Calamari Festival during late September and the Port St Francis triathlon in December. There are walks and trails, acres of fynbos and in early summer wild flowers carpet a large expanse with purples, yellows and whites. The Kromme River, is navigable for 8 kilometres and is the favourite of many a fisherman and sailing enthusiast. The beaches epitomize perfection - the whitest, cleanest stretches of sand on the South African coastline. St Francis Bay is home to Bruce's Beauties, one of the worlds best known beach breaks, Cape St Francis 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 than a kilometre out to sea. Viewed from the sky, the lighthouse stands on a rocky promontory - thundering waves splashing white foam ribbons on the huge coastal boulders. Fifteen kilometres west lies Oyster Bay. It is possible to walk the rugged coast line to Oyster Bay and to arrive at the most welcoming beach where the only foot prints may be yours. Forget the big city waterfront crowds... The commercial harbour of Port St Francis, built in 1995, has always held a unique charm because of both its size and the constant activity. Also, no visit to St Francis would be complete with stopping in at one of the fine restaurants to sample the succulent calamari dishes that drive the lucrative chokka industry. In addition to entertainment and industry, the Port also provides anchorage for pleasure craft and ocean going yachts.This unique and exclusive paradise on the South African Southern Coast draws holiday-makers from all over the world to enjoy the glorious beaches lapped by the warm Indian Ocean, excellent water-sport facilities, a leisurely lifestyle and the magical beauty of its unspoilt surroundings.
