About

Get lost in a private jungle not even a 5-minute walk from the blue flag beach in Umzumbe. Welcome to Mantis & Moon. Experience the warm welcome of the staff family. Our friendly dynamic, local and international volunteers can’t wait to meet you! We too are travelers, nomads, adventurists, dudes, and dudettes who love the sun.

By day, you might see us surfing, painting, expanding our knowledge, fixing and build or cooking up a big delicious meal. By night, we sip tea, juice, or beer next to the exotic rock pool, while global storytellers share their adventures, lessons, and tales of our own lives with people like you.
