Skoenmakerskop is a small village in Nelson Mandela Bay. It is located southwest of the promontory on which Port Elizabeth stands, 8 km west of Chelsea Point. Skoenmakerskop is Afrikaans for 'shoemaker's hill'; this village, the hill, and the Skoenmakersrivier nearby, are said to have been named after Volcker Schoemaker, a soldier who deserted and settled in the Eastern Province.
