Hunting at Sunray Farm

Walk the valleys and the bush veld of the hills of the Great Kei River and experience the wilderness first hand. This is walk and stalk country, this is where real hunters hunt, where the search, track and find bring a whole new dimension to the hunting experience.

Our conservation efforts have made our farm the ideal environment for bow hunting. The game is never disturbed and it has become ‘tame’ to Clint walking the farm. The wart hog are plentiful and we have a couple of characters who visit around the paddocks. Our farm also has Bush Buck, Bless buck, Impala, Kudu and many other animal species that occur naturally in the area. We are privileged to be able to hunt on neighboring farms and local game reserves.

Deep Sea Fishing

The Sea and fishing is Clint’s great passion and having an excuse to go out in his ski boat “Sea Star” is only stopped by bad weather!

Clint will take you out deep sea fishing, launching from the Great Kei River Mouth. 

The Launch is tide and weather dependant and can either be a hair rising dash through huge breakers to the back line or a quiet skip across the white water.  This is one of the most unpredictable launches in the country, but the rewards of a fabulous catch are worth it!  The years of experience of doing this launch makes Clint a favored skipper who has shown many safely through the mouth.
