Backpackers let’s go! Drop by the gorgeous Chintsa Beach, on the Eastern Cape’s Wild Coast, one of the most outstanding hidden gems in South Africa. Chill and meet travellers from all over the world at the renowned Buccaneers Backpackers. Located between miles of Wild Coast forest and beach, the hostel is laid out more like some kind of backpacker village.

Chintsa Beach is also a surfer’s favourite, with the nearby waves providing a chance to perfect your style and technique. Besides the surf school, there is also the opportunity for horse riding, mountain biking, taking a tour on a big four safari or a township or brewery excursion.
