Sardinia Bay offers an exceptional beach experience in Sardinia Bay, which lies between Schoenmakerskop and Seaview, around 10 minutes from Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape. Endless kilometres of deserted white sand and unspoiled coastline provides one of the most idyllic settings for beach strolls. The beach is often frequented by sand boarding enthusiasts, surfers, kite surfers, dog walkers, horse riders, and families enjoying a leisurely picnic or brei. Fishing is not permitted as the coast has been declared a Marine Reserve, but snorkelling and scuba diving are very popular. Sardinia Bay offers excellent picnic facilities, seasonal lifeguards, a lifesaving clubhouse, ablutions, and is also the starting point of the popular 8km Sacramento hiking trail.

Mitchell Park Zoo, also known as Mitchell Park or Mitchell's Park, is situated in the Morningside suburb of Durban, KwaZulu-Natal. Holding claim to being the only zoo in Durban, Mitchell Park was initially established as an ostrich farm in 1910. After an unprofitable start, other animals were introduced and it became home to many large animals; most notably an Indian Elephant called Nellie, who was given to the zoo by the Maharajah of Mysore in 1928. She could blow a mouth organ and crack coconuts with her feet.
