St Lucia Africa
What makes St. lucia and the surrounding areas so special is the huge variety and concentration of African wildlife, birds, reptiles and marine creatures large and small within one area. There is nowhere else in South Africa, or Africa where one can see such a huge variety and concentration of fauna, flora and landscapes. Using St. Lucia as a base, you can see elephants, whales, lions, dolphins, giraffe, giant sea turtles, leopard if you're lucky, birds of all colours, giant African trees and grasslands that stretch for as far as the eye can see, and savannas with heards of plains animals like zebra, wildebeest and buffalo.

St. Lucia Africa, as opposed to St. Lucia in the Carribean, is surrounded by Game reserves, national parks and pristine natural habitats filled with animals, birds and plants, and is one of the major oases of life in Africa.
The Sleepy village of St. Lucia is one of the smallest towns in South Africa with a population of 600. St Lucia is dependent upon local African and international tourism, with around 6000 beds available for peak holiday times.
St. Lucia lies within the iSimangaliso Wetlands Park (formerly known as the Greater St. Lucia Wetlands Park), one of South Africa's World Heritage Sites and the most diverse wildlife parks in Africa. Sightings of animals in and around the town are regular. The hippos and warthogs mow the lawns and the bushbuck eat our flowers. Leopards sometimes eat our pets and the monkeys steal from our kitchens. Honey badgers and porcupines live around St. Lucia too, and zebra and wildebeest heards can be seen less than 1km from the town.
