Houseboats Port Alfred Kowie Cruise 1.MOV
Captain your own boat up the beautiful Kowie River. Enjoy the tranquility of unspoiled nature scenes and fish or relax to your heart's content.
Book a day trip and enjoy the sun and water, or upgrade to a night out on the river and experience the peace that we often forget exists.
The fully equipped houseboat boasts 2 double beds and a couch which comfortably sleep 4 adults and a child. An oven, stove, fridge and warm shower with a porta-loo means you can enjoy full comfort whilst being totally cut off from the hub-hub of city life.
Some great fishing is to be had up-river. Bird and animal life along the river and the game reserves that it skirts promises for good birding and photography.
A definite Bucket-list item when visiting the area or for locals who don't have their own boat. Our packages are perfect for family trips, romantic nights out on the water or a night of serious fishing with friends.
A skippers license is required. If you dont have one, we will arrange for a temporary skippers license at a nominal fee.

PE2EL 2018-2
The first section of paddlers gets ready to set off from Port Alfred’s West Beach this morning, on the second day of the PE2EL (Port Elizabeth to East London) Surfski Challenge, heading to Woody Cape. The decision was taken for them to take that route rather than Woody Cape to Port Alfred because of wind and rough conditions. Competitors were released in four sections, with the top paddlers leaving last.

Ragged tooth shark well over 2m long. Caught on deep sea line off Port Alfred. Not by yours truly. Female fish. Took about 40 mins to get to the trace (you need grab the trace to claim the fish). The idea was to release her as the hook was in the side of her mouth in her teeth. As it happened, as we grabbed the trace the hook just straightened and she swam off quite contented. Had us running around the boat more than a few times we can tell you.

A Holidaymaker's Guide to SA Sunshine Coast
Spring has sprung and it's time to chase the sun in South Africa, and where better than to chase it all the way to its homeland on the Eastern Cape shores of the Sunshine Coast.
From Tsitsikamma up to East London where the Wild Coast starts, you can surf, sunbathe, swim, canoe, hike and explore the little nooks and crannies of a quiet coast where the crowds are less dense, with Port Alfred at its heart.
Besides small coastal hamlets, it also boasts two big cities on the route - the Friendly City of Port Elizabeth and the city-that-feels-like-a-town East London with its history and architecture.

PE2EL 2018-3
It was tough going for competitors setting off from Port Alfred’s West Beach on the second day of the PE2EL (Port Elizabeth to East London) Surfski Challenge, earlier today, with many canoes swamped and flipped in the breakers. Paddlers headed from Port Alfred to Woody Cape, rather than continuing the linear route from Woody Cape to Port Alfred, because of the wind and rough conditions.
