Start of the Surfers Marathon, proximity of the Kwelera rivermouth, Kwelera Nature Conservation area, and Petra & Spuds' 6 sleeper self catering accommodation, with safe parking all feature.
The beach is about 100m away.
Quietly tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life, and surrounded by the Kwelera Nature Conservation area, Petra & Spuds self catering is less than a minute's walk from the beach and the Indian Ocean.

Kwelera is a quick 20km drive from East London center, near the start of the Jikeleza route, and, although quiet, is not far from many east coast resorts.
Situated where the Kwelera River Mouth meets the warm soothing waters of the Indian Ocean, Kwelera Village has all the charm and attraction of a traditional country village.

Petra & Spuds self catering is just 1 km from where the 16km surfers marathon, run along the coast of East London, starts each year at Kwelera River Mouth. For anyone who has run or walked the surfers marathon, you'll know this village.
Soon after the start of the race, you are faced with the choice of "Hit a left onto the beach now?" or, "A little further on the road first, to summon up more courage to tackle those rocks and soft sand?"
If choosing the road, the little village you run through is close to where Petra & Spuds self catering is. Petra & Spuds self catering is therefore perfect accommodation for runners from outside of East London wanting to run the surfers marathon.

The relaxed atmosphere creeps its way into you even before you reach Kwelera. The road through the country takes you past farmlands on the right, the Kwelera River in the valley to the left, and to the sea, river mouth, and village, beckoning on the coastal horizon.

If you enjoy nature, you'll be happy to see guinea fowl, buck and monkeys in the streets, fields, and on the beach of Kwelera Village.

After settling in at Petra & Spuds, take a walk in the field, and watch the guinea fowl play.
Take a stroll to the beach. If you walk too quickly, you'll be there in less than a minute!

Petra & Spuds may be tucked away in Kwelera Village, a quiet corner of East London, but that does not mean you will be excluded from the rest of the world!

Unless of course you want to be!

Enjoy peace, quiet, and solitude in Kwelera Village.

We have great nature walks through virgin coastland forest, and along the coast. The walks are comfortable and well marked, and will delight any nature lover, with sightings of birds and other wildlife.

If you would rather fish, well, you're at the right place. Choose to fish from a sandy beach, from the rocks, at the Kwelera River mouth, or on the river itself!

Sun lovers will enjoy lazing on the sandy white beach.
