Lovely, no fees, nothing, just take care with the offshore wind, and also the sharks, but I`ve been kitesurfing and windsurfing here for 10 years, they are very relaxed.

Pretty pumping in Port Elizabeth, with 2 universities and the pubs mostly busy all week. Must see: Toby Joe`s, Barneys, Beach front pubs, sport pubs.
