In 1954, visionary sugar tycoon Leighton Hulett transformed the land, creating the now-famous St. Francis Bay Canals—a man-made waterway system that connects to the Kromme River and the Indian Ocean. Today, the canals are one of the most sought-after real estate destinations in South Africa, with exclusive properties offering stunning views of the sea, the Baviaanskloof Mountains, and the surrounding natural beauty.
