About Port St Francis Port St Francis is the only national privately owned harbour of its kind, where chokka (squid) fleets berth on one side of the harbour while sleek catamarans gleam white and reflect on blue waters. Comfortable Mediterranean style apartments are set around pleasant gardens and the oceanfront. 
Luxury villas in Main Royal and Port
Island are stunningly situated with
views of the harbour and ocean. A
private beach and swimming pool
provide safe swimming. Also, no visit
to the Port would be complete without
stopping in at one of the fine
restaurants to sample the succulent
calamari dishes that drive the
lucrative chokka (calamari) industry.
In addition to entertainment and
industry, the Port also provides
anchorage for pleasure craft and
ocean going yachts.St Francis Bay is truly a paradise for water-sport enthusiasts. Windsurfing, water skiing, snorkeling, swimming, sunbathing, exploring the canals by canoe and diving are only a few of the activities that can be enjoyed by the whole family. Emphasis is on outdoor life, with the bracing sea air, sunshine and unspoilt surroundings. Fishing in the deep sea, the river, the surf and 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's the Jack Nicklaus signature Golf Course, which is considered to be the closest to a Scottish links to be found anywhere in South Africa. One can take a leisurely horseback ride along the pristine white beaches of the bay, or through the hills colourfully clothed in rare Cape coastal fynbos.
