Best for

Couples and small groups who want a walking holiday without the backpacking.

Our take

The most comfortable way onto the Wild Coast, and a gateway to the harder Pondoland walks further north.

Go If
You want the Wild Coast on foot but not the logistics of carrying and navigating it.

Why it's worth your time

A guided, catered coastal walk along the Pondoland-meets-East-London shore. The easy way to get a Wild Coast multi-day without carrying a thing.

What we love

The pont crossing and the long, empty beaches.

What to know

Includes a river crossing by pont; slackpacker style means your bags move ahead of you. Book ahead; limited availability.
