The Vision

When considering development options for this magnificent stretch of coast with it’s towering sand dunes, spectacular but endangered fauna and flora and panoramic views over the Indian Ocean, recognized conservation bodies were consulted. Plans were drawn up and approved for low-density housing, this being the most responsible option.

Offered for sale is individual title to 78 plots, ranging in size from 2000m to 5500m and priced according to latest price lists available on request. Several owners have already registered individual title transfer.

 

Priorities and standards

Plots were demarcated to afford optimum views. Roads, water reticulation and street lighting of the highest quality have been installed. Security gates with intercom connections to each home ensure controlled access. Leading Architects have supervised the construction of two “benchmark” houses built in an attractive Contemporary Cape Coastal style. Eco friendly boardwalks give easy access to the beach. Alien vegetation is removed as part of an on going environmental and job-creation project.

 

Situation

Just 2km off the N2, exactly mid-way between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. A convenient half-hours drive from George Airport and 10 minutes to the West of Mossel Bay - which offers a state of the art Private Hospital, excellent schools, cultural and social venues, various sporting, sailing and fishing amenities and two Golf Courses.

 

Natural Features

Nautilus Bay has access to a 24Km stretch of unbroken, unspoiled, secluded beach with fine white sand and breathtaking sand dunes. Whales and dolphins are a common sight and surf angling is exceptionally good. There is a rich and varied bird life and small buck abound. Indigenous vegetation (fynbos) provides a constantly changing tapestry of the best of the Cape Floral Kingdom. Privately owned rural properties surround the coastal reserve so the sky is full of stars!

 

Climate

This region enjoys a moderate coastal climate with mild winters and low rainfall.
