The Elizabeth River, New Zealand is a river of Fiordland, New Zealand. It rises north of Mount George and flows westward through Fiordland National Park into Doubtful Sound / Patea at Olphert Cove. Elizabeth Island is opposite the river mouth.[1] The river and island were named by Captain John Grono after his brig Elizabeth in late 1822 or early 1823.[2]
