From the moment you arrive our incredible reception staff will explain to you how Buccaneers works - the places where there's lots happening and the quiet spaces where nothing happens. Our activity list is lengthy so plan for a lengthy stay!

The really good news is that every day there's a free activity designed to get you together with the rest of the crew. This could be a sundowner type affair (with free wine!!) like a volleyball session or a booze cruise or a trip to ther giant sand dune. The free breakfasts every Sunday morning have become famous!
Then there's the beautiful tropical pool, the canoes for the lagoon, and of course the stunning Chintsa beach with its 15km of pristine shoreline and rockpools full of fascinating sea life.

Beach horse rides
Feel the salt spray on your face and hear the sound of the hooves pounding the surf as you ride with a highly professional guide who will choose for you a horse best suited to your riding skill - from beginners to expert riders.

Game drives / Safaris
Spend a few hours in Inkwenkwezi Game Reserve right next door to Buccaneers going on a guided Land Rover safari. See the big four (lion, buffalo, rhino, and sometimes leopard) as well as many different antelope species and zebras and giraffes in this beautiful private reserve.

Transkei day trips
Most days, numbers and weather permitting, there's a really cool trip which takes you thruogh the Southern Transkei combining adventurous bits (jumping off cliffs into rock pools), learning about Xhosa culture (you'll see traditinal village life and visit a sangoma if you wish) and seeing some of the amazing natural features prevalent along this coast.

Craft shop
Buccaneers has a really good little craft shop featuring an array of wonderful handmade items which make superb gifts for you to take home.

Massage and beauty
Tucked away in the trees below the swimming pool there's a little beauty bungalow where you can get a professional massage or beauty treatment. Get gorgeous for the beautiful Chintsa beach with a facial, waxing or tinting or treat yourself to a massage - soothing smoothing de-stressing de-vine.

Chintsa bike rides
You'll be guided through the beautiful hills and valleys around Chintsa on good quality mountain bikes. For moderate to strong riders.

Chintsa surf school
You'll not only learn the basics of surfing, you'll hear all about the dynamics of the sea - waves, currents, rips and tides. Sometimes one of the large schools of dolphins which lives along the coast will join the session. Our equipment is of a high quality and our instructors are well established in the fine art of "catching the big ones".
