Thonga beach Lodge
Casual
On the pristine Maputaland coast, with unspoilt beaches, forests and lakes, Thonga captures the essence of a rustic hideaway. Each air-conditioned chalet is tucked away in the coastal dune forest and raised on stilts, with a deck, some with sea views. Scuba diving (and snorkelling) is phenomenal and the dive boat launches directly from the beach. Enjoy the Open Ocean Experience, spotting marine wildlife including game fish, bottlenose dolphins, whale sharks, turtles and Humpback whales (seasonal). Morning guided kayaking trips or sundowners on the shores of Lake Sibaya. November to February, witness the rare sight of turtles laying their eggs or hatchlings returning to the ocean.
