Zac's on Main

Zac's on Main is situated in the beautiful Coffee Bay village at the heart of the Wild Coast, and overlooks Coffee Bay’s main beach and river mouth, which are just a short walk from our door.

If you are looking for an authentic South African experience, let us welcome you

 and show you how to make the most of your time here. Whether you are looking to surf the waves, hike the cliff tops or just chill out on the beach and make new friends, we will make your experience as unforgettable as the Transkei.

Zac's is a unique accommodation establishment that has evolved from a seaside family holiday home into a backpackers lodge. The main building houses the bar, restaurant, lounge and office, as well as 2 rooms that open up onto a balcony that has a stunning view  of Coffee Bay’s point break.

There is a fully licensed on premise  Bar and Restaurant, dorms and doubles in traditional Xhosa hut style, luxurious en-suite rooms inside the main house, and also luxury safari tents along the banks of the Mnenga river.
