Sandboarding in Addo, South Africa.
What to do in Port Elizabeth? Sandboarding is a great day out from Port Elizabeth or as part of your Addo itinerary. You’ll have time to explore the Alexandria Dune Fields in the marine section of the Addo Elephant National Park. You might even spot whales in Algoa Bay. And when you need a break from this very physical activity you can bird watch. At low tide large flocks of waders feed on the mudflats of the Sundays River Mouth, which is where, due to the quality of the dunes, the sand boarding activity is located. The shallow waters of the estuary provide a lovely safe swimming spot for cool off breaks.
Like its cousin from colder climes - snowboarding - the technique of sandboarding gives you more control and finesse then sledding. It takes a little longer to master but the exhilaration you’ll feel when you start to snake your way down the dune is worth the little extra effort. Our experienced guides will share all their insider tips to help speed up your learning curve.
A sandboarding adventure in Addo is all about enjoying the magnificent environment while having fun!
