Guided Port Elizabeth Coastal Tour

About this activity

Discover the beauty of Port Elizabeth's (Gqeberha) beautiful coastline on a half day tour from Port Elizabeth. Visit Shark Rock Pier, SANCCOB penguin rehabilitation centre, the Cape Recife Lighthouse, Sacramento and Sardinia Bay Beach.

Start your day with a visit of Shark Rock Pier then move on to the SANCCOB penguin rehabilitation centre.

Next, head to the Cape Recife Lighthouse, the third oldest operating lighthouse in South Africa. Continue driving along the scenic coastline to Sacramento Monument where you can hear the story of the old cannon and enjoy the picturesque views. Port Elizabeth is known as the bottlenose dolphin capital of the world, so if we lucky we might see dolphins.

Head inland before visiting the stunning Sardinia Bay Beach with its golden sand dunes. See why the Wildside coastline is so much talked about.

After Sardinia Bay will return to your pickup location via the city where you will be able to see some of Port Elizabeth's residential areas.
