Sundays River is a spot located at the mouth of the Sundays River (Zondagsrivier), east of Port Elizabeth in Algoa Bay. The mouth offers a mix of flat water in the estuary and waves at the ocean exit. The area is wild and natural, on the edge of Addo Elephant National Park. The Sundays River estuary is wide and can offer excellent flat water riding conditions at high tide.
The spot works with SE to SW wind. The estuary offers flat water at high tide. The ocean beach at the mouth has regular waves. Currents at the mouth vary with tide and river flow. Best at high tide for the estuary. The mouth state changes regularly.
