A trip to the iSimangaliso Wetlands Park (formerly known as the Greater St Lucia Wetlands Park) is an opportunity to see and experience one of the greatest varieties of natural wonders in one area in the world. The St Lucia Wetlands Park marine wildlife includes migrating Humpbacked whales (in season), marine turtles, large numbers of Bottlenose dolphins who frequent the area year round, and a myriad of other marine organisms which are to be found along the rocky and sandy shores.

The terrestrial part of the St Lucia Wetlands Park, north of the town of St Lucia has vast areas of savanna and forest, which are home to numerous animal and bird species, large and small. This variety includes the Black and White Rhino, Buffalo, Leopard, Kudu, Elephant, Bushbabies, countless bird species and a vast array of other mammals and reptiles.

Lake St. Lucia, the largest salt water lake system in Africa, is home to +- 800 hippo and +- 2000 crocodiles and will be one of our stops along the way. A visit to Lake St Lucia provides us with a chance to search for some of the water birds feeding along the lake shore. The African Fish Eagle and the huge Goliath Heron are common sightings at St Lucia while Flamingos and Pelicans are found in huge flocks at Lake St Lucia and in the St Lucia wetlands

Our St Lucia Wetlands tour includes a game drive through the St Lucia Wetlands Park with a number of walking trails en route for those who wish. One trail is up to a whale viewing platform at Cape Vidal. If conditions allow at Cape Vidal, snorkeling will be one of the highlights for the day. Cape Vidal is suited to both the beginner and those more experienced at snorkeling, allowing everyone the chance to enjoy the underwater paradise at Cape Vidal. Snorkeling at Cape Vidal is safe at low tide, and you will be guided by a qualified Lifeguard.

We provide a very substantial, freshly prepared lunch at Cape Vidal.

WHAT TO BRING: Sunscreen, a hat, cameras, bathing suits and towels for those wishing to snorkel. Our guides always have a set of binoculars with them but if you have your own we recommend that you bring them.

We Provide snorkeling masks



 

Detailed Information about the iSimangaliso Wetlands Park

 

Introduction

The Greater St. Lucia Wetlands Park 9 now the iSimangaliso Wetlands Park (32°06’25’’E to 32°56’46’’E. and 26°51’26’’S to 28°29’07’’S) is a World Heritage Site. There are few comparable protected coastlines within the tropics as pristine as St. Lucia's. The St Lucia Wetlands Park is one of the outstanding natural wetland sites of Africa. It lies on a tropical-subtropical interface with a wide range of terrestrial, wetland, estuarine lake, coastal and marine environments, which are scenically beautiful and basically unmodified by people. These include coral reefs, long sandy beaches, coastal dunes, lake systems, swamps, and extensive reed and papyrus wetlands, critical habitat for a range of species from Africa's sea, wetlands and savannas. The interaction of these environments with major floods and coastal storms in the Park's transitional location have resulted in exceptional species diversity and ongoing speciation.
