Details of The Wild Coast

Located on the northern coastline of the East Cape, the Wild Coast is a haven for off-roaders, hikers, horse-riders, snorkelers, and scuba divers. Its windswept and less populated coastline is like something out of fiction - a true wilderness ready to be explored.

The area's hiking and 4x4 trails can be enjoy on foot, in a car, or on horseback, with untamed forests and jagged cliffs offering some truly spectacular scenery.

Out in the water, fishing enthusiasts can indulge their passion through fly fishing, deep sea fishing, spear fishing, and more. Beneath the waves, snorkelers and scuba divers will find the waters teaming with life, and the rugged coastline's history as a shipwreck site makes it an excellent place for wreck diving as well.

Visitors to the region will find it is abundant with hiking and 4x4 trails, and also lends itself well to horse riding.

There's less pressure to complete a checklist. There's more room to notice the small stuff: how a herd...

A Hadzabe Tribe Visit Tanzania gets sold on almost every Lake Eyasi itinerary, a dawn hunt, the click sounds of the language, arrows and honey. What most travellers never learn is how much of what they saw was arranged in advance for them to see. This blog explains who the...

Most first safaris get built around a fear of missing out, six parks, six days, a new lodge every night. What you get is a holiday spent mostly in transit, watching Tanzania slide past through a window. A Slow Safari Tanzania flips that. Fewer parks, more nights, deeper time with...
