You can take also a boat cruise into the big wide ocean and go on a whale watch cruise. This is no fun cruise, this is an adventure, a fast boat will take you in a high speed into the deep ocean and will hunt for you the whale, the chances in St Lucia for seeing a whale is very good and so we did and it wasn't a disappointment. Just be prepared to get socking wet, go with light cloths and sandals for this trip, but maybe also something to keep you warn from the sea wind.

The St Lucia Wetlands Park is heaven for bird watching, you will see and hear birds where ever you go, they are everywhere, by the sea, lake and in the forest, not always easy to catch them on camera but here are few nice one I did manage to catch. Leave a Comment

The St Lucia Wetlands Park is the 3rd largest national park in South Africa, offering wide range and diversity of activities and opportunities to see the nature the way it is. In the next few tips I just try to describe in brief what I saw in this beautiful place. Leave a Comment

A Cruise up the St,Lucia Estuary &, there are two trained guides on board . The boat tour takes approximately 1 1/2 , and it was a great tour , it would have been better yet if it did not rain that day.We saw many Hippos whole Herds of them. The Santa Lucia tour boat is comfortable and seats 80 passengers, it has two decks (top deck best view) and it has bathroom facility and you can buy a cup of Tea or some other refreshments.
Three daily Trips 8.30 ,10.30 , 14.30 pm. Fridays and Saterdays a Sundown trip will leave at 16.00 pm.
You should not miss the sundown on the beautiful waterways of St. Lucia. Leave a Comment Phone: 035-5901259Directions: Boat leaves from Dock at the edge of the St. Lucia Estuary.Other Contact: Fax 035-5901212

Mkuze is apart of the Kwazulu-Natal Park system. It is really an extention of the St. Lucia Greater Wetlands park. You can rent a car at Imperial rent a car and use St. Lucia Resort as a base to explore the park, although it is a bit far. You may want to camp at Mkhuze as it is a great option and cheap. Animals are free to move into both areas. Here you kind find wildlife in a beautiful landscape. The best part about the reserves in Kwazulu-Natal are the game hides. They are the best in South Africa and quite possibly the best in Africa (Quite a daring statement I know).
There are no lion or buffalow in the park. However, leopard and hyena are here as well as elephant (which are now in the northern part of the park and can be difficult to spot). This is a great place for birders. The varied terraine, the shallow lake system as well as the location makes Mkuze a great place for resident and migratory birds.
The Kumasinga Hide here is one of the most amazing hides I have ever seen. You can sit by the hours and watch the animals. No driving! It's great, it really is.
There are no tours to Mkhuze that I am aware of. Go to Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Game Reserves if you want a tour.
Check out my Mkuze Page for more detailed information. Leave a Comment Address: Kwazulu-Natal, South AfricaDirections: Mkhuze is located about 100 km North of Mtubatuba off of the N12. It is about 50 km South of the Swaziland boarder.Website: www.ksnwildlife.com

Compare to many other places in Africa, in some of the areas here it is perfectly safe to hike and take a walk in the wild. Actually there are even guided 4 days Wilderness Trail if you wish including overnights stay in a camp. Leave a Comment
