Port Alfred is a small village nestled along the meandering banks of the Kowie River , situated on the Eastern Cape coastline. Vast sand dunes stand guard over kilometers of pristine beaches....a spectacular wilderness nestled between the roaring ocean and the indigenous flora.
Our underwater environment is a spectacular location for diving. Soft corals and sponges carpet our sea floor with vibrant colours. This is a diving destination not to be missed.
Outdoor Focus formerly known as Keryn’s Dive School is an SSI affiliated organisation geared for professional tuition and ensuring that your dive holiday is a success. A warm and friendly atmosphere allows you to relax and thoroughly appreciate the picturesque sites.
Our recreational diving costs R450 per dive inclusive of all rental equipment and R210 per dive if you have your own gear.

Fountain Rocks is an exposed reef off Port Alfred which is home to many spectacular dive sites.

This is a horse shoe shaped gully, getting its name from the many potholes that are scattered around the reef. When you sit at the bottom of these potholes and look up you get the feeling of being inside a fish tank. At the top end of the gully we have a cave which is visited by Ragged Tooth Sharks frequenting our area (max depth 12m).
