Jacobsbaai

Jacobsbaai began in the early 1800s and has maritime and fishing roots, with street names reflecting founders and nature. Stretching 4 km along seven bays, it lies near Vredenburg and Saldanha, with limited economic activity focused on tourism and aquaculture.

The town is mainly a dormitory and retirement village with strong seasonal tourism. Its layout blends older, denser areas with newer, low-density zones, green belts, and rustic roads, maintaining a cohesive village feel.

Challenges include seasonal infrastructure strain, limited economic variety, and environmental limits. Its strengths lie in tourism, natural beauty, and residential appeal.
