Digital Detox & Off-Grid Escapes — Private Campsite with Your Own Guide (Exclusive-Use)

Unplug at Miggo’s Private Camp — Kosi Bay Mouth. Book the entire campsite for your group and slow down in quiet coastal forest a ~40-minute walk from the Kosi Bay Mouth estuary. There’s no Wi-Fi and no electricity at the stands—just stars, fireside chats and nature. Your stay includes a private guide who plans gentle, soul-restoring days around tides, light and weather.

Why Detox Seekers Choose Miggo’s (Quick Facts)

  • Exclusive-use privacy: one booking = your group only (4–8+ guests now; and expanding).

  • True off-grid feel: no power at stands; one plug point at the kitchen area for topping up phones/power banks only.

  • Quiet, natural base: 4 leveled sand stands (7m × 3.5m, side-boarded) with six wooden anchor poles per stand; each stand has its own rustic toilet. (Plus 4 larger stands.)

  • Simple comforts: camp braai/BBQ, kitchen prep area, 2 communal hot showers; two spotlights light most of camp—bring headlamps.

  • Nature-led days: tide-timed snorkeling, fish-kraal culture walks, forest/dune strolls, kayaking, birding, shore/estuary fishing—all at an unhurried pace.

  • Rooftop-tent friendly: 2–3 vehicles comfortably (max 4 by arrangement).

What’s Included

  • Exclusive use of camp (no other guests).

  • Daily private guiding tuned to rest, reflection and simple experiences (we suggest one main session/day).

  • Use of braai/BBQ and kitchen prep area; communal hot showers; private toilet per stand.

  • Help coordinating permit/partner elements (e.g., turtle season night outings in Nov–Mar; extra fees).

What to Bring (Digital Detox Edition)

  • Tents & bedding, camp chairs, full cooking kit (stove, pots, utensils) + all food & drinks.

  • Headlamps/torches + power bank (single charging point at kitchen area).

  • Sun protection, insect repellent, sturdy sandals/shoes; light wind/rain layer.

Private Guide: Designing Slow Days

  • Snorkel the “aquarium” when water is calm and clear; short sessions, long floats.

  • Shallow-water culture walk among the Thonga fish-kraals (etiquette brief included).

  • Coastal forest & dune strolls at golden hour; sit-spots for quiet time and journaling.

  • Kayak gentle channels (conditions permitting) or choose easy birding loops near camp.

  • Firelight evenings: simple stories, stargazing, early nights.

Turtle season (Nov–Mar): We can pair restful days with a permitted turtle night outing via partners (limited; extra fees).

Sample 2-Night “Unplug” Plan (Example)

Day 1: Arrive, set up, slow estuary stroll and first look at the “aquarium,” sunset braai & stars.
Day 2: Gentle snorkel at the best tide → long lunch & hammock time → coastal-forest walk at golden hour.
Day 3: Coffee and quiet time, short birding stroll, pack up at an easy pace.
