Cape St Francis, a quiet and picturesque coastal village, has a history marked by early European exploration and maritime navigation. The name originates from Portuguese explorer Manuel Perestrelo, who in 1575, named the bay "Bahia de Sao Francisco." The town's most prominent historical landmark is the Seal Point Lighthouse, a striking white tower built in 1878 to warn ships of the treacherous reefs. Today, the village is renowned for its pristine beaches, world-class surfing waves, and a laid-back atmosphere. It remains a popular destination for tourists seeking a tranquil seaside escape and a place to enjoy nature and outdoor activities.
