Port Elizabeth Travel Guide - Exploring Magnificent South Africa
Port Elizabeth Travel Guide - Exploring Magnificent South Africa
Port Elizabeth (or just PE if you want to sound South African) is South Africa's fifth largest city and is located on the Indian Ocean coast half-way between Cape Town and Durban, in the Eastern Cape, about 260 km from Knysna. Also known as the friendly city and the windy city, it tends to live up to both names.
A perfect complement to the Garden Route, the Friendly City is a major sea port and tourist destination set along the beautiful shores of Nelson Mandela Bay. The centre of the South African motor industry is spoiled by moderate and warm temperatures all year round with scattered rain throughout the year - climatic attributes which contribute to an outstanding quality of life.
A popular and significant destination for water sports, Port Elizabeth also offers many historical attractions, such as the Historic Donkin Heritage trail, taking visitors along the footsteps of the 1820 settlers. British heritage is reflected in the Port Elizabeth Cricket Club, and the Oldest Bowling Green in South Africa. Port Elizabeth’s greatest treasures, however, are malaria-free wildlife areas in its vicinity, and clean beaches washed by warm water.
Port Elizabeth was founded by British settlers in 1820 and was named after the wife of Rufane Donkin, Acting Governor of the Cape Colony at that time. The city is located on the Algoa Bay and forms together with the neighboring towns of Uitenhage and Despatch the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Municipality.
PE is a wonderful jumping-off spot for game viewing. There are elephants and other birds and animals at Addo Elephant National Park and many privately owned game reserves in the area, as well as great area for viewing marine life in the form of dolphins, whales and African penguins.
Brooke's Pavilion has excellent views over the beaches and ocean. Any one of the restaurants there are a good idea for breakfast with a view. Accommodation ranges from hostels to more luxury accommodation. Whatever you want, you can find without trouble.

World First as Port Elizabeth Campanile Bells play Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika
The work that has been done to the historic Campanile in Strand Street, Port Elizabeth is absolutely world class. This evening MyPE.co.za got to experience one of the 'surprises' of the work done on the bells and keyboard. were involved.
Two additional bells have been added to the clarion to make a full 25 notes - middle C and 12 either side.
The 100 year old keyboard has had electronics added to it enabling a full range of music to be played and the bells are now also driven by computer allowing for the repertoire to be expanded somewhat.
This evening the Campanile clarions range was tested with a special rendition of the South African National Anthem - Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika - being played.
Stirring stuff as this ancient monument is updated and 'dragged' into the 21st Century.
