About This Tour
The only one of its kind, a land-based Cape Recife Marine Safari is the perfect way to end a stay in Port Elizabeth /Gqeberha. Pristine, wild and elemental, this section of the sweeping Eastern Cape coastline brings guests close to whales year-round, while the area is known as the bottlenose dolphin capital of the world. Birding here is renowned and a number of ocean, bush, coastal and pelagic bird species may be spotted. The area is a botanical hotspot where an enormous diversity of flora is protected. Our knowledgeable guides, in game viewer vehicles equipped with the correct equipment, are ready to delight and enrich you with experiences that you will never forget, in a part of Africa where time has stood still. With its mild, malaria-free climate, Cape Recife is the ideal place for a last sunset with cocktails and a late evening walk on the beach as you round off a memorable visit to this beautiful part of our country.
