About Fish River Country Club
Located midway between Port Elizabeth and East London just outside the picturesque town on Port Alfred on South Africa's sunny East Coast lies the Fish River Country Club.
Occupying a splendid strip of pristine green next to the shimmering blue of the Indian Ocean, the course has some of the best real estate in the Eastern Cape. From any angle this course is absolutely magnificent.
Designed by one of South Africa's favourite and most successful golfers, Gary Player, this par 72 Parklands format course brings the best out of you as you stroll along its undulating fairways and look over the roughs that are awash in dark green indigenous foliage. The 6.3km's of course have been designed to challenge and add to the mix the coastal bush and the notorious Old Women's River, which springs up on you on the 12th, and you have a recipe for wonderful stories and ever-so-slight elaborations.
The Fish River course is an absolute must play for any golfer keen to experience golfing as it should be - away from the crowds and back to the heart of the game. At the Fish River Country Club you will find the full set of facilities and a warm receptive team.
