Seaside resort at the estuary of the Breede River, at St Sebastian Bay, some 80 km south-east of Swellendam. Takes its name from Cape Infanta several kilometres to the south, and from its situation on the Breede River. The cape was in turn probably named after captain João Infante, who commanded one of Bartolomeu Dias's caravels.
