Seal point lighthouse

Since 4 July 1878, the iconic Seal Point Lighthouse has been weathering the tempestuous climate of the Eastern Cape to offer indispensable guidance to ships entering the dangerous waters of Algoa Bay. The lighthouse’s restored living quarters, revitalised in 2020, now offer a unique opportunity to experience this historic landmark firsthand. Guests are invited to continue the lighthouse’s legacy, creating their own stories in this one-of-a-kind setting.

Choose from two luxurious self-catering wings, each nestled beside the lighthouse tower, blending the original charm of the keeper’s quarters with modern amenities.   For those seeking more space and privacy, Salt Cottage offers a stunning 3-bedroom self-catering house, perfect for families or groups.

The brave can explore this magnificent masonry lighthouse on a guided tour. Climb 154 steps to the lantern room, 28 meters high, and enjoy breathtaking views of the seascape and Cape St Francis.

Adjacent to the lighthouse you’ll find the award-winning Nevermind restaurant.  With its breathtaking location as a backdrop, Nevermind delights guests with a tantalising array of innovative dishes, from indulgent, freshly baked goods to vibrant, wood-fired local lunches and dinners.
