With the nearest town being a two hour drive away (depending on how bad the potholes are) we really enjoyed the freedom. This is the area that Nelson Mandela was born and grew up in, and you can&#39;t help but feel the magic of the place. We also happened to score phenomenal waves, often with not great weather so much of it went undocumented. But we still got more than enough to share this with you.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FQrFGrDY4Qo\" width=\"560\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nFeel free to comment below, share with you friends or just &#39;like&#39; it!<br \/>\nNikita<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field_blog_blurb\">\n<div>Blurb<\/div>\n<div>Heading away from the towns and into the countryside we found ourselves at the small little paradise of Coffee Bay, watch the video to see what we got up to.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field_meta_title\">\n<div>Title<\/div>\n<div>Through the potholes we found ourselves surfing endless lefts at Coffee Bay<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field_meta_description\">\n<div>Description<\/div>\n<div>Leaving the cities behind us we ventured off into the hills and found ourselves in the little village of Coffee Bay.
