Historical and cultural icons worth visiting in Port Elizabeth include 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', and Route 67 – a collection of 67 art pieces celebrating the years Nelson Mandela devoted to public life.
An outdoor-lover’s paradise, don’t miss out on boat cruises, diving opportunities, a visit to the Seaview Predator Park and an excursion to Bayworld (which incorporates an oceanarium, museum and snake park).
The park, the third largest in South Africa, offers a wide range of game viewing and outdoor activities, which include horse-back and horse-riding, guided walking, hiking and 4x4 trails and a picnic area for day visitors. Nothing could be better if you are a bush lover.
