Report 26 of the Estuaries of the Cape, Part 2: Synopses of available information on individual systems series, edited by Heydorn, AEF and Grindley, JR. Stellenbosch: CSIR.

The Olifants River system was explored early in the colonization of the Cape by European settlers. This estuary is in an almost pristine state and human activity in the area has had little impact on it. In fact the sole activity that has a direct effect is fishing and even this is on a small scale. At present, activities in the catchment probably have a greater effect on the estuary than those in its immediate environs.enEstuaries - South African estuariesEstuarine systemCape estuariesCoastal researchOlifants estuaryOlifants RiverAbiotic characteristicsBiotic characteristicsRiver catchmentFaunaFloraCouncil for Scientific and Industrial ResearchCSIRNational Research Institute for OceanologyNRIOArchaelogyReportMorant, P.
