Hole in the Wall & Wild coast

Post by Fanie1 »

Hi guys,

I am planning to to a trip to Hole in the Wall later this year. I am planning to go the quiet routes, but I am unsure about security and safety as I am aware that tourists had some problems in that area in the past. Please advise?

Does anybody have experience of the "Wild Coast Eco Trail"? I see the route on T4A.

So far I am travelling alone, but hopefully we will get some company.

Any info on the above will be appreciated!

Regards

Fanie

We did a similar trip. We stayed 3 nights at Morgans bay in the caravan park. Nice and clean. Moved of to Coffee Bay and stayed 8 days at White Clay and did day trips to Hole in the wall and the surroundings. White clay is safe with a watchman at night. The locals wash your dishes and dirty clothes everyday for a mere R20.00. The watchman was paid R30.00 a night and we felt very safe. We gave our fishing gear to the locals and they caught a lot of fish every day(for us). Very nice place to have a holiday.
O yes. They gave our fishing gear back in one piece.

Thanx for your feedback, Vaatjie.

Did you stay on the "bigger" roads or did you venture off onto the 4x4 routes as well?
