3About Flagstaff
Flagstaff, up in the Eastern Cape hills toward the Wild Coast, sits on the R61 between Kokstad and Lusikisiki, with the N2 the usual route in from Durban or Mthatha. It's a proper stopover town if you're heading down to Port St Johns or the coast, and locals nip through often to Bizana or Mount Ayliff. Nearest airstrips, Mkambati and Port St Johns, are both an hour-plus away. Fun fact, the town's named after an actual flagstaff traders once planted on a hill as a landmark.
