The hard and soft coral reefs just off the coast are home to many species of small fish and dolphins and offer a host of easy as well as more challenging diving spots.
THE WILD COAST in the Eastern Cape provides unspoiled natural beauty. Comprising of about 300 kilometres of coastline between East London and Port Edward, the name Wild Coast complements the area’s scenery of untamed splendour and cliffs, which in two places feed waterfalls directly into the ocean.
