Untamed. Unfiltered. Unforgettable.
Tucked along South Africa’s remote and rugged Wild Coast, Coffee Bay is a destination like no other — a place where dramatic cliffs meet golden beaches, and the rhythm of the ocean is matched only by the heartbeat of Xhosa culture.
At Wild to West, we don’t just offer self-catering accommodation — we invite you into the experience of Coffee Bay itself. From your doorstep, a world of natural beauty, adventure, and cultural richness awaits.
Just a short drive or scenic walk away, this iconic natural rock arch is a must-see. Carved by centuries of ocean waves and steeped in local legend, it’s the perfect spot for photos, picnics, or even a quick dip.
Coffee Bay is a surfer’s paradise. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a beginner, the warm waters and consistent swells make it an ideal place to hit the waves. Surf lessons and board rentals are easily available locally.
Explore the untouched beauty of the Wild Coast on foot. Rolling hills, sea cliffs, and cattle-lined beaches make every step feel like a journey back in time.
Join a guided village tour to learn about local customs, try traditional food, and meet the warm, welcoming people who call this land home. It’s a deeply enriching experience you won’t forget.
Whether you’re collecting shells, exploring tide pools, or simply soaking up the sun, Coffee Bay’s unspoiled beaches offer pure, peaceful pleasure.
Cast a line off Coffee Bay and you’ll understand why anglers keep coming back to this stretch of the Wild Coast. Here, dramatic cliffs, rocky points, and unspoiled beaches create natural feeding grounds for species like kob, shad, garrick, and kingfish, with both rock-and-surf and estuary options right on your doorstep. It’s the kind of place where you can fish first light in complete silence, feel proper pull on your rod, then end the day with a braai and an ocean sunset that cost you nothing but time well spent. Coffee Bay offers authentic, uncrowded, seriously rewarding fishing—perfect for weekend warriors and dedicated anglers alike.
