The Kosi Bay estuary
(26°54' S;
32°53' E)
is situated on the east (KwaZulu-Natal) coast near the Mozambique border. This system has a catchment area of approximately 304 sq. km. Approximately 13% of the Kosi Bay catchment was under agriculture, mostly subsistence farming. Roughly 23 % of the catchment was degraded, comprising degraded grassland and forest while about 64% was natural, and generally consisted of grassland, waterbodies (the Kosi lakes), forest, and forest and woodland. There did not appear to be any major development in the catchment.
