East London has South Africa's only river port, and it is a growing city with something to offer everyone. Its residents get to make the most of year-round spectacular weather and a laid-back way of life. The various suburbs of East London all have a unique character and their own list of reasons to be called home.

Beaconhurst School caters for the needs of learners from junior primary to Grade 12, while Beacon Bay Retail Park and Beacon Bay Crossing take care of families' shopping needs.
This well-loved area of East London boasts an array of affordable properties, and those looking for properties in Beacon Bay to Beacon Bay can find three to four-bedroom character-filled homes in this price bracket. Typically, these homes offer a garden and double garage, while flatlets and pools can also be found. Two and three-bedroom apartments are also on the market, boasting modern finishes in secure complexes, often with communal pools and braai areas.
Going to Gonubie - and the reasons why you'll love it
Gonubie is well loved for its boardwalk, as well as the man-made tidal pool, ocean and lagoon views and indigenous flora and fauna. For many reasons, residents describe Gonubie as "a piece of paradise" in the Eastern Cape. It is an ideal home for families who enjoy nature and an outdoor way of life, with the Gonubie Nature Reserve and nearby Kwelera Mouth Nature Reserve offering loads to see.
