Emoyeni B&B is located just 350 meters from Gonubie beach.
Close by amenities include, the Bird Sanctuary, Golf Course and
the scenic boardwalk which leads across the bay to the beach and
river.
A good selection of restaurants and coffee shops, as well as the
Gonubie Hotel are within walking distance (no more than 500 Meters).
There are also shopping centres and several take away restaurants
in close proximity.
One of the best kept holiday secrets in the Eastern Cape, Gonubie
is situated 15 km’s from East London and takes pride in having
achieved blue flag status at its local beach, where the Gonubie
River runs into the sea.
Sightings of Humpback and Southern Right Whales making their way
from Mozambique to the icy waters of the Antarctic and back again
are a common occurrence in the Gonubie bay and along the coast line.

The whales can be observed from the shore at one of the many coffee shops
on offer, or from boat based viewing which is an unbelievable and truly
humbling experience. In addition dolphins are frequent visitors to the
bay and are often spotted quite close to the shores.
