ABOUT

Join us for the launch of PE2EL Book, the story of one of South Africa's great paddling adventures.


Since 1972, paddlers have taken on the four-day surf ski race from Port Elizabeth to East London, a stretch of coastline that has tested and rewarded generations of them. This book brings that history together in one place.


On the night, the race ambassadors will be interviewed live on stage, sharing their own experiences of the crossing: the conditions, the camaraderie, and the moments that stayed with them long after they came ashore.


Afterwards, stay on to chat with the ambassadors and fellow paddlers, and to buy a copy of the book.


Date: Thursday 20th of August 2026

Time: 19:00

Venue: William Simpson Cars (125 Main Road Cape Town 7945)

Tickets: R200


Snacks and refreshments will be provided.


Books and Limited-Edition books will be available for purchase at the event.
