What to do and see in Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape: The Best Shopping

July 8, 2021 Nobuko Falco

Port Elizabeth or The Bay (Xhosa: iBhayi; Afrikaans: Die Baai [di ˈbɑːi]) is one of the largest cities in South Africa; it is situated in the Eastern Cape Province, 770 km (478 mi) east of Cape Town. The city, often shortened to PE and nicknamed "The Friendly City" or "The Windy City", stretches for 16 km along Algoa Bay, and is one of the major seaports in South Africa. Port Elizabeth is the southernmost large city on the African continent, just farther south than Cape Town.

We so enjoyed our tour given by local artist and inspiration, Sakumzi. What he and his brother are doing in their community is inspiring...teaching the local youth about art through expression is something to see. They are making a difference and their art (which is for sale) is just as impressive.

I was in South Africa for over 2 weeks but didn’t do much shopping. When my trip ended in Port Elizabeth I was recommended to this shop. It was a wonderful experience! The shop is huge and the staff was so helpful. They have a wide range of items from inexpensive fun gifts to expensive and elaborate finds that you haven’t seen elsewhere. I was able to find some special gifts for friends and family and of course- sone fun and different souvenirs for myself. The manager walked around with me and helped me pick out purchases without pressuring me to buy things. I have already told some other friends about this amazing store and hope to visit again someday!
