The 3 km pristine beach between Seal Point and Cape St Francis, has a healing effect on the soul of the guest, who had to rush through our great country to enjoy and see as much as possible in too short a time. It is safe to swim and Seal Point is a world renowned surf spot. The village is surrounded by four nature reserves. The walkways, clearly marked, present easy relaxing and refreshing walks along the coastline, round our famous historical Lighthouse and more inland through the Irma Booysen Reserve. There are many interesting activities locally (information available on request).
