Abstract: NOT JUST A BACKPACKERS, BUT A REAL AFRICAN EXPERIENCE

Description:

The original Bomvu Paradise is named after the local Bomvana tribe, known as the 'red blanket' people. The Bomvanas are your hosts and entertainers, providing a magical African experience through Xhosa drum and dance. Friday night is a unique opportunity to meet with the local community and the well-known drum band 'Bomvu Tribal Rhythms'. SA's only drum making school and factory shop is here, with free drum playing workshops 3 times per week.

Several activities are on offer from hut sleep-overs to potbread making, awesome hikes - which include Hole in the Wall and Mdumbi, Sangoma visits and horse riding. Spoil yourself with Yoga and massage in our tranquil milkwood studio or take a plunge with the well-organised surf school, which guarantees warm water, good waves and no crowds.

The only Billabong surf shop on the Wild Coast is located here.
