Thobeka has a very peaceful and tranquil atmosphere and is perfect for relaxing and forgetting about the worries of daily life. Fall asleep in a hammock, laze around the pool or let the birds sing to you while you relax with a cold drink under the Boma tree and watch the sun slide into the far away hills. We have perfected the art of slowing the pace of life.

Kosi Bay mouth offers a different set of activities from snorkelling in the “aquarium” with it’s incredible number of fish species to relaxing on the unspoilt and empty beaches, or if you have the energy, swimming or surfing in the waves or playing in the lagoon. Kosi is great for kids and very safe in the shallow waters of the lagoon.

Turtle spotting is also a favourite activity from November to late January, and we will arrange a trip for you to witness this great wonder of these huge creatures coming up onto the beaches in the early evening to dig their holes, lay their eggs, cover the holes and gently glide back into the surf. Truly an amazing experience!

Ponta d’Ouro in Mozambique is only thirty minutes away and offers great diving and an opportunity to swim with Dolphins and Whale Sharks, or if you are in the mood for relaxing, why not take a drive through the area and stop at one of the local restaurant to sample a succulent Portuguese style chicken grilled the Mozambican way or how about some fresh prawns or seafood.
