Geography: This rugged and scenic region stretches for 270km from the Great Kei River to the boundary between the Eastern Cape and Natal. The coastal village of Mbotyi is reached from the inland turn-off at Lusikisiki and is 67km north of Port St Johns.
History: Known as the pearl in the crown of the Eastern Cape, the Wild Coast forms part of the former Transkei homeland, and much of the area is rural South Africa in its true essence. The apartheid legacy has lingered and is visible especially in the underdeveloped road system, but this has meant the underdevelopment is glorious in its ruggedness!
Arts & Culture: Much of the Wild Coast region is populated by rural Xhosa, who still practice traditions and customs that are no longer evident in the larger cities. Some of these include the initiation ceremonies, and the payment of lobola, a type of dowry payment in cattle and cash.
Science and Nature: The Wild Coast remains a relatively untouched paradise in South Africa. It is an eco-haven of unspoilt stretches of coastline, open spaces and pristine indigenous coastal forest areas. Tourists are guaranteed a wonderful and exciting holiday.
Entertainment: Travellers will not get an opportunity to get bored! The swimming is safe and warm in the warm Agulhus current and undisturbed along this peaceful and magnificent stretch of coast. The entire Wild Coast is ideal for walking, with many caves, bays, shipwrecks, cliffs and capes to explore and its savage beauty will enthral. If the weather takes a turn then head out to the Wild Coast Sun for entertainment including water sports, one of the best championship golf courses in South Africa, as well as a casino.
Sport: The hiking trails available in the Wild Coast area are something special, while anglers will revel in the game fishing opportunities. If you'd like to test out your vehicle and driving skills, then one of the many 4x4 routes will prove to be a challenge.
Did you know? The Wild Coast has become the graveyard of many vessels, but none more than those belonging to the early Portuguese navigators.
