}}The Kouga Dam (formerly: Paul Sauer Dam prior to 1995[2]) is an arch dam on the Kouga River about {{Convert|21|km|mi|abbr=on}} west of Patensie in Kouga Local Municipality, South Africa. It supplies irrigation water to the Kouga and Gamtoos valleys as well as drinking water to the Port Elizabeth metropolitan area via the Loerie Balancing Dam.[3] It was constructed between 1957 and 1969.[4]

The dam can be accessed by following the R330 and then the R331 from the N2 at Humansdorp. All but the last {{convert|8|km}} is tarred road and there is a short tunnel just before the dam wall.

Kouga Dam Power Station

There are three 1200 kVA hydroelectric turbines at the base of the dam, but they are currently not in use.
