There are many sources of water. South Afria has 50% of Africa's dams and so it can be seen that rain water stored in dams is a major source. However, the country does desalinise sea water as well.

South African water sources include the Vaal River which is the Orange River's main tributary. Unfortunately, the Vaal has tested high for fecal contamination. The South African government as well as environment and human rights agency are focused on providing clean water for all residents.

South Africa is a big country with lots of topography, people and climatic variation. This means your question is too general for us to be able to provide an answer - other than rain, rivers, lakes/dams and aquifers. If you want us to provide more helpful answers you need to make your questions more specific.
