Shark Point again

Over Easter we took our 3 year old grandson to St Francis for a night. The little guy was fascinated by all the boats so we chartered a power boat to go down to Shark point.

The top picture shows the warning beacon on the point, erected there after it had claimed a few wrecks, including this one of the yacht Genesis.

And at the end of the point, in the distance you can see the Seal Point Lighthouse peeping over the rocks . Unfortunately the sea was pretty rough so it was not safe to venture round the point into the bay at Cape St Francis.

Shark Point


When you stroll along the path from the Port, past Otters Landing you will get to Shark Point, which is one of the two promontories off Cape St Francis. The other is Seal Point where the lighthouse is situated. The area around Shark Point has been preserved as a nature reserve, which means that no development can take place there.
