Albertinia

Picturesquely situated between the Indian Ocean in the South and the Langeberg mountain range in the NortH Albertinia offers magnificent, scenic views of the Gourts River, the sea, the coastline and mountains. It is a town with an enchanting, old-world atmosphere and has retained much of the character of a typical late 18th and 19th century trade outpost. The agricultural sector remains the most important contributor to the local economy, with livestock farming, (cattle, sheep and ostriches) being the leading sub-sector. Albertinia lies in the centre of the wheat belt of the Southern Cape sub-region. It is the country's foremost source of aloe juice that is used in the health and skin care industry. There are two aloe factories in Albertinia that extract juice and gel from the harvested aloe blades.
