A Free Wild World: The West Coast Journey

A Free Wild World with Chris Wait – Season 2

The West Coast Journey

Season 2 of A Free Wild World with Chris Wait follows an intimate winter journey up the West Coast of South Africa, exploring its raw beauty, resilient communities, and deeply rooted coastal culture.

Traveling the way locals do, Chris moves from town to town, immersing himself in daily life and uncovering the human stories that define the region. The series focuses on honest, ground-level encounters — conversations with fishermen, artists, town characters, and everyday people whose lives are shaped by the sea, isolation, tradition, and change.

Each episode blends travel, culture, and unscripted interviews, offering viewers an authentic look at West Coast life beyond the postcard image. From working harbours and small fishing villages to creative outposts and forgotten towns, this season will captures the rhythms, struggles, humour, and quiet magic of the west coast.

Season 2 continues the show’s signature gonzo, grassroots style — minimal filters, real conversations, and full immersion — creating a portrait of a region and its people through curiosity, respect, and shared humanity.
