Eastern Cape Online Casinos

Eastern Cape Online casinos

The eastern Cape region is often overlooked when it comes to top tourist spots in South Africa, and that suits the locals just fine. Not that they’re unfriendly in any way (Port Elizabeth is known as the Friendly City for a reason, it’s also known as the Windy City for a reason too!), it’s just that they prefer their visitors to appreciate them for what they offer. And what they offer is superb, untamed nature.

While people all rush off to the big tourist spots of Cape Town and Durban, those in the know head to the Eastern Cape to experience the most incredible coastlines this country has to offer. Mile on mile of unspoilt beaches from the Wild Coast to the Garden Route. Not to mention Jeffrey’s Bay – an almost religiously venerated surf spot that has challenged the greatest surfers of all time.

The Drakensberg, our most spectacular mountain range and home of Tiffendell, South Africa’s only snow skiing resort.

Tsitsikamma and the Knysna forests – dense, almost jungle-like, forests filled with incredible wildlife.

The Karoo, a vast, beautiful, arid semi-desert with views of the star-filled heavens that will make you feel absolutely insignificant and all-powerful at the same time.

Nature is at its very best in the Eastern Cape and the lack of massive crowds keeps it that way.

But that also means a lack of the huge crowds that make centres like Jo’burg and Cape Town such attractive places to build giant casino complexes.

Port Elizabeth and East London, two of the bigger cities in the Eastern Cape, each have a signature casino, with a number of (very much smaller) casinos in the outlying areas.

Boardwalk Casino

Boardwalk Casino is situated on the beachfront in Port Elizabeth and offers a good variety of slots and tables to the passionate player. As a Sun International property, Boardwalk Casino maintains the highest levels of quality and service and the full range of games are offered. Add to that a premier hotel, some of the best restaurants and bars in Port Elizabeth, cinemas, bowling, go-karting and adventure golf and you have a stunning destination for adults and kids alike.

There is also a spa and a retail offering.

Hemingways Casino

Hemingways Casino in East London may be smaller than the Boardwalk but the entertainment options really do it justice. The casino itself offer a limited range of slots and tables, but this can be offset by the Hemingways Mall, a retail complex that offers the shopaholic every store they could desire – all linked directly to the casino. A true one-stop destination.

Here you can find restaurants, boutiques, cinemas and more.

The casino is cosy, intimate and inviting – just like East London itself – and has some very attractive offers and promotions for gamblers.

But when it gets busy you can struggle to find a place to play, something that East London gamblers don’t need to worry about when they have access to superb online casinos from their very own home or office.

South Africans are embracing the online casino world for offering what they really want, the games and places to gamble rather than the distracting and often overwhelming mega-entertainment complexes that land-based casinos seem to be becoming. And Online South African Casinos knows just which ones are the best for South African players – whether you’re from East London or Jozi or Tweebuffelsmeteenskootmorsdoodgeskietfontein (real place, check it out):
