Moving from the countryside to the city can be a scary thing, especially if one is transitioning from the calm and quiet of the village to the frantic pace and bustle of the big city. Obviously, some students are overjoyed at the thought of moving from the remoteness and isolation that sometimes accompany village life to the freedom and access to go anywhere and do anything in the city.
Some people, though, may be concerned about such a drastic transformation. Will it be tough for you to fit in among the city dwellers and How will you deal with more people? The Nelson Mandela Bay is the city that is inviting and calms those nerves, There are various coastal areas, beaches, and public gardens nearby where one can escape to restore the tranquil environment found in the country.
This area is regarded as the “official” gateway to the gorgeous Eastern Cape Province and the world-famous Garden Route. It is also known as the “friendly city” or the “water sports capital of Africa.”
Nelson Mandela Bay is also well-known (for animal enthusiasts), as both the Mohair and Bottlenose Dolphin capital of the world. The Bay is home to the largest breeding colony of African Penguins! It is the only city with the Big 7 (Elephant, Buffalo, Rhino, Lion, Leopard, Southern Right Whale, and Great White Shark) within its municipal boundaries. Gqeberha is famed for its approximately 40Km shoreline, which boasts a plethora of Blue Flag Beaches and hours of sunshine to enjoy them in.
