Port Alfred Property for Sale
Spread across the banks of the Kowie River, the scenic seaside village of Port Alfred is one of the most highly sought after holiday and retirement destinations in South Africa.
Located in the warm heart of the Sunshine Coast, equidistant from the principal Eastern Cape cities of East London and Port Elizabeth, Port Alfred is a rapidly expanding vacation venue that has managed to retain its original fishing village ambience.
Its idyllic setting is largely due to a fine blend of beach, river and bush. Apart from the long, golden beaches and the navigable river that is a renowned birding hotspot, Port Alfred is within close proximity of countless game reserves including some of the most popular malaria-free big five safari destinations in the land.
Its incomparable lifestyle is aided and abetted by more than adequate facilities and amenities that include modern shopping malls, trendy boutiques, world class restaurants, quality schools and the full bouquet of medical practitioners and facilities.
Grahamstown, a major educational centre, is only 40 minutes away and offers tertiary education at Rhodes University and excellent schooling at some of the best public & private schools in the country – St Andrew’s College & Prep School, Graeme College, Diocesan School for Girls, Kingswood College, Victoria Girls Primary & High Schools and St Aidan’s College.
