Gonubie main beach is a beautiful sandy beach with a boardwalk of international standard. In 2010/11 Gonubie Beach was awarded the prestigious Blue Flag beach award. The river serves as a great place for activities such as canoeing and kayaking.
Gonubie is today being developed as a residential exurb just outside the city of East London and has become a bedroom community with much of its working population commuting to East London to work or study.
The relative isolation of Gonubie from the rest of East London has allowed the town to retain its laid-back coastal atmosphere therefore appealing to those who sought to live conveniently far enough from the city.
