It’s the place to enjoy sunshine on hot summer days, the place to relax after a hard week’s efforts, and the place where families come together to play: Summerstrand’s name says it all.
Port Elizabeth’s vibey suburb Summerstrand is located on the very tip of this coastal city. It forms one of the most vibrant suburbs in the Friendly City, boasting incredible blue-flag beaches, not to mention university, restaurants, and casino and entertainment centre. In fact, Summerstrand offers all the pleasures that one may expect from a place with a name that reflects summer and beach-life.
From gorgeous gals and guys relaxing, surfing, or taking a break from their classes at the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University, to meandering couples enjoying the sun and cool ocean breeze, Summerstrand offers something for everyone. It is the people’s suburb.
Residents of Summerstrand in Port Elizabeth enjoy the holiday feeling throughout the year, but also have the additional benefits. With Pearson and Summerwood schools, as well as Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University all situated in Summerstrand, families can be close to educational facilities. Mom and dad, on the other hand, can jump on the freeway for quick access to what Port Elizabethans call “town.”
Not that trips into town are necessary! Summerstrand Village, the Mercado Shopping Centre and the Boardwalk – amongst others – all offer places in Summerstrand to shop, eat, do the groceries, go to movies, or even have a cocktail.
Beautiful enough that you will often see newlywed couples having their photos taken on the beach, but established enough to offer residents and visitors practical reasons to extend their stay, Port Elizabeth’s Summerstrand is the place to be!
