Coffee Bay, at the heart of South Africa's Wild Coast is a strange kind of place. There are no "facilities" as such, no shops other than spaza shops, some basic backpackers and pizza joints, but we managed to find a decent guest house which was awesome. The village is somewhat spoilt by the abundance of rubbish lining the streets, and beaches. Which is a pity, because it has so much potential. But it's still a wonderful place to visit, and it absolutely oozes character.
The Hole in The Wall is a must visit, we were told that the road was terrible and only passable in a 4x4. Which is incorrect, there is maintenance on the go and it can be done in a normal car. The informal "guides" can be a problem, I found that a firm but friendly approach was the way to go. It's a spectacular natural wonder, I highly recommend it.

I’m Chris, video creator, and lover of road tripping & the great outdoors. Now exploring the off the beaten track, hidden places of Africa, and sharing the adventure in video, photos and words. Kangela is aimed at those who want to experience gravel road travel and off road adventures, but who don’t care as much about the vehicle that gets them there, as they do about the journey itself and the destination.
I try to provide useful tips and background information about the unusual places that we visit, as well as endeavouring to draw attention to conservation, my intention is always to inform, educate and entertain.
