Safari in a UNESCO World Heritage Site

The teeming banks of the St Lucia Estuary are home to a plethora of flourishing wildlife. The iSimangaliso Wetland Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, combines densely populated land and marine environments to create a truly unique safari experience. Makakatana Bay Lodge is the only privately owned lodge within the park and is hidden amid riverine forest mere metres from the water’s edge.

  • Land, boat, horse, turtle and beach safaris are on offer, along with scuba-diving, fly-fishing, deep-sea fishing and whale watching
