Hole in the Wall is about 520 km via the N2 (around 7 hours) from Durban, situated 9km from Coffee Bay and surrounded by vast stretches of unspoiled coastline.
This landmark was created millions of years ago through the restless action of waves against the rock, which is made up of Ecca shale and sandstone, capped with hard volcanic dolerite.
We visited the Hole in the Wall, between 16 and 19 June 2016. Beautiful beaches - breathtaking skies and mountains. Not forgetting farm animals from horses, cattle, pigs, donkeys, sheep etc., including wild flora – huge Aloes in abundance.
(The Ecca Group is a group of sedimentary
geological formations found in southern Africa. A component of the Karoo Supergroup, it consists mainly of shales and sandstones, laid down in the sandy
shorelines of swamplands during the Permian Period.)
