Things to do at the Wildest Part of Everywhere
• Leave your footprints in the sand.
Book a guided walk from Coffee Bay or Bulungula. It’s an easy 4 hour hike from either direction to Lubanzi where you can rest your soul for a night or two. Experience the wonders of walking through Xhosa villages, past the famous Hole in the Wall and into hidden river valleys.
See Wild Side Hiking (page XX) for more info.
• Whales and their calves visit the bay in season and dolphins hang around most of the year. Let them teach you how to catch the perfect Lubanzi wave.
• Bring a surfboard and see if you can handle the break.
• Dive in warm East Coast water, go fishing Xhosa-style or just wander over to the Lubanzi Caves.
• Without a little rain there would be no rainbows. When rainbows are being made, join them for fire-gazing and gentle music.
