Hidden amongst lush coastal forests, four crystal lakes guard ancient fishing traditions.
A pristine coastal wilderness where four lakes connect to the Indian Ocean through an intricate system of channels, Kosi Bay is a slice of Africa untouched by time. Here, gin-clear waters host traditional Thonga fish traps – delicate wooden structures that have remained unchanged for generations. The surrounding coastal forest harbors rare palm groves and birds found nowhere else in South Africa, while the protected waters offer sanctuary to sea turtles, dolphins, and a kaleidoscope of tropical fish.
