Rough seas, again
When there's more white than blue and green along the coast you know the wind was blowing again

The Port Elizabeth beachfront
We are really privileged here in Port Elizabeth that we have so little over development along the beachfront. No heavy traffic congestion and narrow roads like in Durban or lack of parking like Cape Town. Our beaches are generally clean and driving along Beach Road and Marine Drive you can keep one eye on the sea. I love Port Elizabeth.

Pollok Beach rock pool
Growing up we spent many a Sunday afternoon down at the "the rock" (as we called it) below Something Good. You know the one I'm referring to. The one where the water washed through between the rocks and into the little natural tidal pool. Yes, the one in the picture. Stopping by there on Sunday I realised that we've never really brought our kids to swim here and although it was a glorious summers winter day, I think we may…

Summer in winter
Any visitor from outer space who landed up in Port Elizabeth over this weekend would have been very mistaken to think that it is the middle of summer. With temperatures touching 30C, people seem to be have summer withdrawal symptoms and flocked to the beaches in numbers you rarely see in summer. Check out how packed Pollok Beach was on this Sunday afternoon.

Boardwalk to Cape Recife
Have you ever walked further along the beachfront boardwalk than the lollipop beacon on the corner of Admiralty Road and Marine Drive. This morning I had 20 minutes or so before a workshop at the Summerstrand Hotel and decided to venture a little further down than usual. A beautiful morning with the sea on the one side and among the coastal vegetation yet less than 100 meters from Marine Drive. What an awesome asset the city has in this stunning…

Kings Beach Lake Reflection
It is as if the palm trees in Kings Beach Park were planted there for photographers to get pics of their reflection in the lake.

Kings Beach lake water feature
I went for a quick early morning walk around Kings Beach Park before work and got stuck at the water feature next to the lake trying to get a picture of both the waterfall and the lake without getting my work pants wet.

Golden glow on the beachfront
Regular Port Elizabeth Daily Photo follower Gerhard Burger sent me this picture last week. Isn't that just the perfect winters afternoon in the Bay?

Giraffes on the beachfront
The harbour giraffes aren't the only giraffes you see on the beachfront. There are also twenty kiddie giraffe rides at the Kings Beach Park play area.

Entrance to the Boardwalk
The Marine Drive entrance to the Boardwalk must be one of the most photographed landmarks in Port Elizabeth. My office is above the tourism info centre just on the left as you walk under the arch and I literally see visitors taking pictures of the entrance every time I go outside. Some of it on it's own, some in selfies and some with friends and family in it. But always featuring the entrance. Perhaps the Boardwalk could put Port Elizabeth up there…
