Lubanzi
Lubanzi shares its name with the Lubanzi Xhosa Village that is perched on it. Visit the village to experience it’s customs and culture.
There is an estuary nearby, which is great for fishing, paddling, and bird-watching. With green hills and rugged rocky mountain faces surrounding the beach, this makes exciting exploration on foot and promises spectacular views. There are sea caves on Lubanzi too, into which you can swim or, if you wait until low tide, walk.
Hole in the Wall is a renowned attraction that is just five kilometers from Lubanzi Beach when walking.
