They dont call it south africa’s “Little Venice” for nothing...
The first section of the canal system, with an eastern and western outflow to the Kromme River, was finished in 1976. The St Francis canal system is the country’s largest man-made network of canals. The canal system, which includes the Kromme River, has a small boat harbour and a popular restaurant, and is a playground for water sport enthusiasts and fishermen alike.
Holiday makers and locals alike love the ambiance and tranquility of cruising the canals (cooler box in tow, of course).
