Our pristine beach should be listed as one of the Blue Flag Beaches in South Africa. It is safe to swim here and the walk is about 4 km long towards Cape St Francis Point. From August until end October we often have whales in the bay and the dolphins visit the surf regularly.

A walk along the Sand River, which transports ±80,000 cub meters of sand from Oyster Bay to St Francis Bay annually, is a phenomenal experience.
