PORT ELIZABETH BAGS HALF IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPS AND BLUE FLAG STATUS

Tourism boost for Bay CARA­LEE DORFLING

N

ELSON Mandela Bay’s tourism and economy are set to receive a big boost with the announcement last week of the Bay not only being chosen as the the host city of the Half Ironman (Ironman 70.3) World Championships next year, but also that three of its beaches

have achieved the coveted Blue Flag status. Excitement is in the air after the announcement that Port Elizabeth will host the prestigious world championship, where the cream of the world’s best Ironman athletes compete against each other. The event is hosted in a different country each

year and Port Elizabeth competed against Nice in France and Budapest in Hungary to be the host city. The Half Ironman World Championship is expected to attract 6 000 of the world’s best athletes and their support teams, as well as their supporters to Port Elizabeth in September 2018. The announcement was made by Andrew

Messick, chief executive officer of Ironman, in Hawaii on Thursday last week. Keith Bowler, managing director of Ironman SA, believes years of hard work and striving for perfection with the presentation of the last African Ironman Championships in the Bay bore the fruit. Continued on page 2
