Beach

Time for sandy feet and salty running kit! Nothing quite like a beach run with the sun rising over the sea, nothing but a few oyster catchers calling to each other, and a lazy gull or two circling above. But there are some risks attached to a quick shift to sand if your feet are more accustomed to the firmer of terra firma options.

During the Wildcoast Wildrun® Africa experience, participants come up close and personal with a particularly interesting breed of beach bum. They have impressively long lashes, wear beautifully patterned suits, demonstrate a slow and steady gate and a unique ability to cut single track on the grassy headlands above the beaches. Only in the Transkei, will you find Nguni cattle chilling happily on the pristine beaches of this piece of coastline.
