Overview Properties Branches
Port Elizabeth (PE) is not only home to stunning beaches, interesting museums and award-winning wildlife destinations, but also some of the friendliest people in the country. It's no surprise to visitors that it's called the "Friendly City".
 
Port Elizabeth - or the Friendly City - is a coastal hub in the Eastern Cape where everything is only a 15-minute drive from the airport.
It's one of the largest cities in South Africa, lying 770km east of Cape Town where it forms part of the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro, which links the city with the inland industrial towns of Uitenhage and Despatch.
 
When you want to hit the beach, Algoa Bay, the coastal strip of Nelson Mandela Bay, is a 40km-stretch of beaches with protected areas for swimming at Kings Beach, Hobie Beach, Humewood Beach (a world-class, Blue Flag beach), Pollock Beach and Denville Beach. Fishing, surfing, scuba diving, snorkelling and sailing are enjoyed at the quieter spots including Wildside, Sardinia Bay, Blue Horizon Bay, Bluewater Bay, Beachview and Schoenmakerskop.
 
If you're interested in culture, you've got to check out the Red Location Museum, a museum in New Brighton Township that portrays "both the horrors of institutionalised racism and the heroic efforts of the anti-apartheid movement".
 
Then there's the Donkin Reserve, where you can enjoy birds, walking paths, an opera house, a lighthouse and a memorial.
Don't forget to make time for the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Art Museum and Prince Alfred's Guard Memorial, both in St George's Park - the oldest park in Port Elizabeth and home to the St George's Cricket Oval.
 
Since PE includes Nelson Mandela Bay, it's also where you can find Route 67 - a collection of 67 art pieces celebrating the years Nelson Mandela devoted to public life. It's a mix of visual arts, urban design and heritage, showcasing old Victorian churches and the terraced cottages on Donkin Street, where massive silver pipes catch the famous winds of Port Elizabeth and make music. You can also see the lighthouse that once guided ships into Algoa Bay, now accompanied by an awesome pyramid.

One of the highlights is the large metal cut-out of Nelson Mandela leading South Africans to vote in the country's first democratic election. A moment that South Africans will always remember.
 
The city is an outdoor-lover's paradise, so don't miss out on boat cruises, scuba diving, and a visit to the Seaview Predator Park.
When you head into town take a walk through the Boardwalk Casino and Entertainment Complex, where shops, restaurants, an amphitheatre and casino will keep you entertained for hours on end.
 
Also worth a visit is a 52m tower with 204 steps leading to the top. It's called the Campanile Memorial and stands watch over the Port Elizabeth harbour. Built in 1923, the monument honours the arrival of British Settlers all the way back in the 1820s.
 
Staying with history, another gem is No 7 Castle Hill, which was built not long after the settlers arrived in 1830. This is one of the oldest surviving settler cottages in the city, complete with a cobbled courtyard and an operational well, and it shows you what domestic life was like in the 19th century.
