Illovo River : ウィキペディア英語版 | Illovo River
The Illovo River is in KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa. It rises in the upper Illovo area in the Richmond vicinity near the Drakensberg, and empties into the Indian Ocean near Winklespruit. During the year 2009, the mouth of the Illovo River moved significantly, moving north by approximately 0.7 kilometers within a year from the original mouth area at Illovo Beach, KwaZulu-Natal. During the year 2009, there was no open river mouth flowing into the sea as the river continued to move northwards along the beach towards the area known as Winklespruit beach. Later the river opened into the sea at a point approximately 500m north of the original mouth. In 2010 construction machinery was used to divert the river mouth back to its original place as concern was high that the river may cause damage to nearby residential property. The name Illovo is derived from the Zulu name of a tree called "ilovo".
