Stunning coastline! So much to see and do
Game drives, shops
On the day of our game drive it was raining a lot and we did not see a lot of animals. There were quite a few buffalos, saw 3 lions, impalas and some giraffes.
The weather, people, and what's available!
Isimangolisa Park and tourist attractions. Great coast line.
Unspoilt nature, a town where you can still walk around at night and feel safe.
Lot of activity.
Wonderful safe and cosy!
Cleanliness and the game park.
St Lucia is amazing. Cape Vidal is a wonderful destination as well. Great fishing spot and love seeing all the animals driving through the Game Reserve.
More info about South Africa - Elephant Coast
A place of natural beauty and diverse marine life, the Elephant Coast along the northern stretches of KwaZulu-Natal Province in South Africa comprises the continent’s oldest game reserve, pristine beaches with ancient dune systems along a vast tropical coastline, unique wetlands and tribal traditions.
A small settlement in the area is named Dukuduku, a Zulu word meaning ‘groping in the dark’ because of the thickness of bush and many wild animals, including large herds of elephants, in the area. This problem, along with flooding rivers and the threat of malaria and bilharzia are the likely reasons why the area remained unspoilt for so long. Today, the Elephant Coast attracts hordes of nature lovers, water sports enthusiasts and those seeking absolute solitude.
The Elephant Coast is the ultimate location for holidaymakers wishing to combine a beach and bushveld getaway.
