Location & Attractions


Port Alfred has a big heart and is known for its friendly atmosphere, wonderful climate, pristine beaches, as well as the magnificent Kowie River, which flows into the warm Indian Ocean.

Port Alfred is also the home of the Big Pineapple and the Kowie Chu Chu. The Kowie Chu Chu is Port Alfred’s very own tourist train. It travels up to historic Bathurst, north of Port Alfred. Learn all about Pineapples, and shop for pineapple curios and gifts inside the biggest mane made pineapple in the world. The Bathurst Agricultural Museum, Toposcope and Horse-shoe Lookout Point in the Waters Meeting Reserve are only a few of the many historical and scenic sites to be visited. This is also an art and craft lover heaven.

Stock up on delicious fresh produce, home made goodies and crafts at the popular Sunday Farmer’s Market, held every Sunday. The Great Fish Point Lighthouse is of historical interest and the breathtaking view 76m above sea level is worth the climb.
