Situated alongside the mouth of the Groot River at the bottom of the Groot River pass and the Groot River estuary, this beach forms part of the Tsitsikamma De Vasselot nature reserve and is about 6kms long. The beach includes a beautiful lagoon which flows into the Indian Ocean, surrounded by mountainous forest that are rich in both fauna and flora and offers South Africa's indigenous birds a wonderful habitat. A feature of this untouched beach is Pigs head, a rock face so named because of its striking appearance to a pigs head! Natures Valley Beach is 38km (38 minutes) from here.

This beach fronts the lagoon mouth – and varies in size from a strip of sand to a broad stretch of beach depending on the tides. The size of the beach is also determined by a couple of other factors such as the tides and how much rainfall there has been and the flow of water into the river from the mountains. The water colour can vary from a deep sienna colour (this is caused by tannins in the water, but it is still very clean) to crystal clear, sometimes in summer the river bottom is so shallow and the water so white that it is easy to imagine you have been transported to a pristine desert island. There are often wide sandbanks with shallow water covering them and on a hot day these waters heat up rapidly to a wonderful tepid warmth. Safe for little ones to wade and splash about in it's shallow depths, it is one of the safest spots to take your kiddies as far as water environments are concerned. It is interesting as well with row-boats, colourful yachts and ski boats cruising up and down the deeper boat channel over the other side and the ocean waves breaking beyond. This lagoon beach is accessed from the residential area of Poortjies. There are public toilets there but no other public amenities. Poortjies Beach is 5,7km from here.
