Also known as Gqeberha to honor indigenous South African heritage, Port Elizabeth offers a wealth of cultural and natural beauty. Its location on the scenic Algoa Bay provides opportunities to observe whales and birdlife, while the famously stunning beaches, such as King’s Beach and Sardinia Bay, are perfect for swimming, surfing and sunbathing. Port Elizabeth is also a gateway to the Eastern Cape’s remarkable wildlife, with the nearby Addo Elephant National Park providing opportunities to observe not only elephants but also lions, leopards, rhinos and other animals. History enthusiasts will appreciate the city’s well-preserved colonial architecture along the Donkin Heritage Trail and Route 67, which also features 67 works by Eastern Cape artists that encourage reflection on the nation’s past and hope for the future.
