iSimangaliso St Lucia Wetlands

Lake St Lucia is an astonishing 367km sq and is undoubtedly one of the country’s premier attractions for travellers who want to experience the beauty of Africa’s coastline.

The lake reaches from the game filled Mkuzi Plains in the north to the St Lucia estuary in the south and is as close to Mozambique as travellers to South Africa can get.  What makes this park such a draw is its impressive array of habitats; mountains, palm groves, bushveld, sand forests, coastal forest, coral reefs, grasslands and wetlands make the iSimangaliso St Lucia Wetlands Park an essential visit.

The village of St Lucia is where travellers can find accommodation and facilities but there are plenty of other options including Cape Vidal, Sodwana Bay and the Mkuzi Game Reserve.
