About Program
Officially renamed Gqeberha in February 2021, Port Elizabeth, or 'PE' for short, sits right on the southern coast of South Africa. You can find yourself on the beach participating in any number of ocean sports that PE is popular for- swimming, snorkeling, surfing, bodysurfing, windsurfing, jet skiing, fishing, boating, and scuba diving. PE's Humewood Beach has achieved international Blue Flag status and the city is a nature lover's paradise, with beautiful parks, gardens, and several wildlife reserves in the area. This is the perfect study abroad location for your outdoorsy and nature-loving wanderers!
