Area Info
East London is a popular city on the Eastern Cape's Sunshine Coast. The sub-tropical climate, long hours of sunshine, warm Indian Ocean, and beautiful uncrowded beaches make it a sought-after holiday destination.
East London, affectionately called “Buffalo Cityâ€?, is the only river port in South Africa, located between the Nahoon and Buffalo rivers. It lies at the northern end of the 300km Sunshine Coast that begins at St Francis Bay. The Sunshine Coast boasts the longest hours of sunshine on South Africa’s coastline and its unspoilt beaches are among the country’s best. Three popular beaches have made East London a surfing mecca and haven for water sports including swimming, scuba diving, fishing, boating, yachting, and windsurfing. Nahoon Beach is the most popular, offering arguably the best swimming and surfing in the country; Eastern Beach is the most central with convenient changing rooms, takeaways, and great surfing waves; while Orient Beach is close to the main shops and hotels, and has a super tube and children's pool.
