Why Travelers Love This
iSimangaliso - as the name so aptly translates from the local Zulu language means "Place of miracle or wonder". Home to about 800 hippos and 1200 Nile crocodiles inhabiting the estuary systems thoughout the park. The natural diversity of animal, plant and birdlife is simply mind-blowing. South Africa's first declared UNESCO World Heritage Site for Nature in 1999 and has 4 proclaimed RAMSAR Sites in the park boundry. This extensive wilderness runs 220km along the coast from Maphelane, just south of St Lucia to the border with Mozambique at Kosi Bay Mouth. From St Lucia we can only venture 30km into the park to the beautiful beach at Cape Vidal where you can explore the rock pools, miles of unspoilt beach and the warm Indian Ocean. The "wow" factor making a visit to iSimangaliso is that you have a safari experience all the way to the beach and then have second safari on your way out of the park again! A truly unique, once in a lifetime safari experience!
