The Eastern Cape’s Wild Coast continues to attract international attention as a destination that combines natural beauty with authentic cultural experiences.
A recent feature by Financial Times highlighted key attractions such as Hole in the Wall and Mkambati Nature Reserve, while emphasising the role of local communities in managing and benefiting from tourism development.
The article noted how land restitution and co-management models are enabling communities to actively participate in conservation and eco-tourism, creating more inclusive and sustainable tourism outcomes.
This growing recognition positions the Wild Coast, and the Eastern Cape more broadly, as a leading example of community-based tourism in South Africa.
