Every year during the winter months St Francis Sport offers a weekend walk – date and times to be confirmed according to the tides.
Walking comes highly recommended by medical practitioners to people of all ages and fitness levels. It’s proven to be beneficial to many serious and less serious medical conditions as well as to mental health. Spending time in nature also gets the creative juices flowing – all good reasons to join in the fun.
Three distances will be walked on Friday afternoon, Saturday morning and Sunday morning. It is not a race, there will be no winners but to ensure safety, you will have to finish before a certain time.
On Friday walkers enjoy a circular 5km walk from Port St Francis along sections of the Two Harbours Walk and the streets of Santareme. Number collection from 15h00, route briefing 15h20 and the walk starts at 15h30.
On Saturday morning walkers will walk either from Jeffreys Bay to St Francis Bay or from St Francis Bay to Jeffreys Bay, 16km. Shuttles can be privately organised through JBay Cabs (083 6111 003) or Simpiwe’s Shuttles (083 957 1331).
On Sunday morning walkers will enjoy a 14km figure 8 walk starting at Port St Francis through to Cape St Francis and back. The allocated time is 08h00 – 12h00. Number collection will be from 07h30 and briefing at 07h50.
