About Jungle Monkey and The Island Backpackers Lodge

The Shuttle stops at Jungle Monkey, so jump out, park your pack and climb up onto the viewing deck to take in the 360º view of tropical paradise. Then assume The Chill Position armed with something ice-cold. Whether that's in the bar overlooking the pool, at the pool gazing out at the ocean or lying in a hammock, is up to you.

Want adventure, relaxation and good food? Good. Jungle Monkey promises the whole lot. Their well-stocked and vibey bar (with its pool table, live entertainment, open mike and jam sessions) is open all day. Their restaurant will happily quell all hunger pangs, whilst sports fans can get their fill with generous servings of big screen DSTV.

They offer shuttles to the beach, horse and hiking trails, mountain bikes, canoe river trips, nightly sundowners, whale and dolphin spotting boat cruises and many other daily activities that explore the untamed Wild Coast.

End your day with a jungle shower - just don't let the cheeky monkeys steal your soap.

When it's time to move on, travel the Wild Coast's scenic route - by speedboat. Ask about swishy boat transfers to, and from, Coffee Bay, the Kraal and Mdumbe.

Directions

The nearest bus Station is in Umtata 100km away, of which we provide a shuttle service. So we need to know in advance if this is required.

The local backpacker bus service - the Baz Bus - does stop there as well as the Grayhound and Translux.

The nearest airport is in East London 3 and a half hrs away or Durban 4hrs away. Most people hire cars and come to us.

We are well signposted once you reach Port St. Johns Gates. Our Logo consists of a Sangoma [witch doctor ] elevating over the Umzimvubu River and Port St. Johns Gates.
