The Kowie River is the heart of Port Alfred. It has its source in the hills of the “Grahamstown Heights” from where it flows in a south-easterly direction draining the major part of the Bathurst region, reaching the Indian Ocean through an estuary at Port Alfred.
The Kowie River has something for everyone to enjoy. Love being on the water? Cruise with friends, water ski for thrills, or kayak peacefully. Watch birds and have picnics by the scenic riverbanks. The beautiful spot where the river meets the ocean is a photographer’s dream.
Kelly's Beach
A unique feature of Kelly’s Beach in Port Alfred on the Sunshine Coast is the two viewing decks from which you can view the beach, perhaps spot a whale or two and from which you can observe the most spectacular sunsets if you are passing at that time of day.
