Information
Port Elizabeth

Port Elizabeth

Port Elizabeth, also known as the friendly city, is one of South Africa's best-kept secrets with fantastic weather, stunning beaches and a range of attractions making it a great place for a relaxing stay.

The city was founded by shiploads of British settler families who arrived in the Eastern Cape in the early 19th century hoping to improve their prospects after suffering economic hardship because of the industrial revolution at home.

A combination of calm waters and fair breezes create perfect conditions for a range of watersports such as sailing, wind surfing and kike boarding. The beaches are also safe for swimming, surfing and body boarding. Clear water (up to 30 metres visibility) make it ideal for scuba-diving and there are a number of great diving areas such as ship wrecks and coral reefs.

There are one day courses available as well as boat charters and gear for hire. As with every South African city, it is full of rugby fanatics who like nothing more to grab a few beers and talk rugby.

Where to eat

Get off the beaten track and find yourself a traditional steakhouse, or go more mainstream in one of the restaurants in the big hotels, either way you can be sure of a great meal.
