St. Francis Bay Accommodation - Eastern Cape

Known as the ‘little Venice’ of the Eastern Cape, St. Francis Bay lies at the mouth of the Kromme River. The charming little holiday village of St Francis Bay is built around a series of man-made canals and waterways, perfect for boating, swimming and other water sports. On one side of the privately owned Port St Francis harbour, a fleet of squid (chokka), hake and pilchard vessels are berthed, while leisure yachts and recreational fishing boats are moored next to magnificent black roofed, white walled thatched homes set right on the waters of the St Francis Bay canals, where you can fish from your front lawn!

The more active have plenty of other activities to choose from in St Francis Bay, as in surfing, kite boarding, wind surfing, paddling and golf. Surrounded by the Gamtoos River Valley, Tsitsikamma and the magnificent Baviaanskloof Wilderness Area, St. Francis Bay offers nature lovers a unique wilderness experience in these Eastern Cape sanctuaries, with colourful cliffs and rock formations, 1000 different plant species, and a rich and diverse animal life including Cape Leopard, Cape Buffalo, Kudu, Cape Mountain Zebra, Red Hartebeest, Bushbuck, Mountain Reedbuck, Eland and Baboon.

St Francis Bay also offers you a deluge of fabulous restaurants to chose from, where you can enjoy generous breakfasts, light lunches and gourmet dinners. Try something Greek at the Big Time Taverna, an authentic Greek restaurant situated on the canals, where you can sit outside on a summer night and enjoy delicious food, wine and speciality drinks such as Ouzo and Metaxa Brandy. For the seafood lover, Loligos Seafood & Grill overlooks Port St. Francis harbour and the Indian Ocean, providing spectacular ocean views.

Playground to dolphins and whales, the glorious beaches, open-markets, restaurants, shops and 'well-to-do' leisurely lifestyle makes St Francis Bay the ideal Eastern Cape holiday destination. 

The St Francis Bay Golf course is a spectacular challenge and home to the annual Calamari Classic Tournament.

The St Francis Bay Links Golf Club is immaculately presented and proved to be particularly overwhelming on a howling windy day
