Alexander Bay, Namakwa
Alluvial diamonds are mined in Alexander Bay and, as this a high security area, access is limited to permit-holders. The mine offers tours on Thursdays, starting at 08:00. Booking is essential and should be arranged 24 hours in advance. A visit to the Orange River mouth and estuary, where bird life is prolific, is well worth while.
