This 2 hour Boat Cruise Safari gets you close up to the residents of the estuary. While on cruise with the experienced and knowledgeable rangers, you will gather some exciting information about the crocs and hippos. The rangers will undoubtedly answer every question that you might have and furnish you with some incredible facts and information on the area.

after the hippo & croc boat cruise, we take a lunch break. Then we proceed to do a self drive game drive in the DukuDuku area of Isimangaliso Wetlands Park. Here we have chances to see many animals such as elephants, kudu, giraffe, zebra, and many more.

Isimangaliso Wetlands Park, a world heritage site has plenty to offer. One such section is Cape Vidal where we do our game drive. Cape Vidal offers the best of two worlds - it is situated on the exquisite Zululand coast with all its amazingly rich marine life, and it provides direct access to the Eastern Shores Nature Reserve with its populations of elephant, rhino, buffalo, crocodile, hippo and reedbuck to name but a few. The beach and off-shore areas at Cape Vidal fall within the St Lucia Marine Reserve which is visited seasonally by humpback whales during their migrations. Other marine “big game” includes the huge whale shark, marlin, sailfish and dolphin. Cape Vidal lies on the edge of the St Lucia Marine Reserve which extends from 1 km south of Cape Vidal to the Mozambique border, and three nautical miles out to sea. Six loop roads off the main St Lucia to Cape Vidal road provide excellent game viewing and bird watching. In late afternoon we head back to Durban
