A village just south of Grootmis, at the mouth of the Buffels River, 72 km south-east of Port Nolloth and 105 km west of Springbok. Known for its diamond-mining operations. Founded after 1927. The name is Dutch and means 'small sea', referring to a lagoon at the mouth of the Buffels River.
The Buffels River "flows" through Kleinsee, but most of the time it is just a dry river bed and this river only flows approximately every ten years.
The Primary School does not exist anymore, is now a Center for learning and Development
Its population size generally consisted of around 2,000 residents, but was considerably reduced by the down-scaling of mining activities in 2009.
