KwaBhaca, formerly Mount Frere, is a town now located in the Eastern Cape province, previously known as the Transkei region of South Africa. Its name in Xhosa is kwaBhaca, or "place of the Bhaca people", who settled here early on.

KwaBhaca is situated between Kokstad and Mthatha along the N2 road about 100 km northeast of Mthatha. It is administered by the Alfred Nzo District Municipality and the villages are ruled by the Tribal chief with intermediary borders.
