Overview

This map of Kenton-on-Sea, located on South Africa’s south eastern coast, is a modern and detailed map that focuses on this coastal town and its iconic landmarks. These include the Bushmans and Kariega rivers on either side of the town and the smaller village of Bushmans River to the west. Today, Kenton-on-Sea is known as "The Barefoot Capital of the Sunshine Coast," celebrated for its tranquil beaches, river activities, and the surrounding natural beauty, including nearby game reserves. 

Map Design and Paper

The map is an original creation by our design studio at Africa Map Art. Data for this map has been compiled from various up-to-date sources including from the OpenStreetMap contributors. The map is available in the following two paper options and canvas: a high quality 210gsm heavyweight coated paper with a matte finish, which achieves excellent colour and resolution and is perfect for framing;  a 260gsm photo paper with a smooth satin finish;  and a 350gsm strengthened canvas. All the options are shipped in a cardboard roll for protection. The canvas is unstretched and unframed.

We welcome personalisation and customisation requests, such as highlighting of specific buildings or features, adjusting the colour scheme, or the addition of text and images.  Please contact us for a quote.

 History

Kenton-on-Sea’s history as a permanent settlement is relatively recent, evolving from a holiday destination in the early 20th century to an established town of 5,000 people today. Many of the cottages in the town have been passed down through generations. The area was once part of the frontier between the Cape Colony and the Xhosa people.
