Discover the Charm of Seal Point Lighthouse

Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving from Port Elizabeth, take the N2 highway towards Cape St Francis. After about 90 km, take the exit toward Cape St Francis/Jeffreys Bay (R330). Follow the R330 for approximately 15 km until you reach Cape St Francis. Once in Cape St Francis, follow signs directing you to Seal Point Lighthouse. The lighthouse is situated at the end of Lighthouse Road, which leads directly to the coastal area. There is ample parking available near the lighthouse.

• Public Transport

  For those using public transportation, you can take a bus from Port Elizabeth to Cape St Francis. Buses are available at the Port Elizabeth bus station, and the journey typically takes around 1.5 to 2 hours. Once you arrive at the Cape St Francis bus stop, you can either walk to the lighthouse, which is about a 30-minute walk (2.5 km), or use a local taxi service. Walking directions: head west on St Francis Drive, then turn left onto Lighthouse Road, which leads you directly to the lighthouse.

• Walking

  If you're already in Cape St Francis and prefer to walk, you can start from the main beach area. Walk towards the eastern end of the beach until you reach the rocky outcrop. The pathway to the lighthouse is clearly marked. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the beach to the lighthouse, offering a scenic route with beautiful ocean views along the way.
