Wild seas at Bird Rock

On my way to work this morning I noticed how the waves were washing over the Port Elizabeth harbour wall. I decided to take a drive down the beachfront before going to the office and stood pulled over on Lovers' Lane across from Bird Rock. The waves were washing right over it. The sea she … Continue reading Wild seas at Bird Rock →

Beachfront fun by Chasing the Rainbow

So in the spirit of nice weather and fun times, today's Video Friday post is one from Chasing Rainbow showing fun activities they got … Continue reading Beachfront fun by Chasing the Rainbow →

Pollok to Hobie

I took this picture looking from the rocks at Pollok Beach back towards Hobie Beach the other day just as the little army chopper came flying past.

Before the formalities we had drinks outside by the pool and I must say that the hotel must have one of the best pool views around. The best part is that one would … Continue reading Courtyard Hotel pool →

A beautiful sunrise at Pipe

One of the best parts of winter is the fact that the sun comes up later which gives us a much better chance to see a sunrise than in summer. This morning Elzabe Boshoff was down at Pipe (at Pollok Beach) at sunrise and snapped this breathtaking photo of sunrise. Wow! What a way to … Continue reading A beautiful sunrise at Pipe →

Splish splash over Bird Rock

Last week we had some big swells around. So big that a cruise ship had to dock in PE for a while due to a bit of damage it picked up after swellsflooded one of its decks. Driving along Marine Drive I always look towards Bird Rock. Probably because I have a Geocache located on … Continue reading Splish splash over Bird Rock →
