💨 Abstract

Six coastal escapes in South Africa offer true solitude and disconnection from modern life. Strandfontein, a fishing village, provides quiet skies and unhurried days. Natures Valley, at the end of the Otter Trail, is a silent, lagoon-wrapped hamlet. Mdumbi, on the Wild Coast, offers surf and solitude. Boggomsbaai, near Mossel Bay, features endless empty beach and whale sightings.
