St Lucia Estuary

The best place to end a day with the hippo chanting in the distance and close family sharing splendour with.

Mfasana Pans Eastern Shores Lake St Lucia

Another great adition to wetland amenities with hard surface development for ever changing the face of a heritage.

It is scienery like this spliting ones heart in two and grows two hearts. The love for nature untouched over shadowed with the luxuries brought by hard surface development.

Catalani Bay Eastern Shores

What a masive improvement on the previous regime. Hard surface development has it place fore ever changing the face of a heritage site.

Wetlands water damming

The hard surface development has devided the wetlands into the area fed by the rain purculating from the dunes into the wetlands

One of the vast improvements made to enhance your experience on the Eastern shores of Lake St Lucia

Cape Vidal Beach

Where is all the people? We stood at the gate since 06h00 and some since 05h00 and we all got to the beach. Very nice day a little windy I must say. Friday will be the next sunny day.

Kudu along the way

Cape Vidal Kudu is world renown for their huge horns. This family was split up on both sides of the road. No Rhino so far and very few other animals.

We saw some Zebra and Warthog in the distance. A small bush back and a small black mamba right next to the road.

Cape Vidal Gate Times and Feea

Remember the R5.00 per person comunity levy

Very tempting Road to St Lucia main beach

Why would one not go to St Lucia main beach, but endure the wait in the line to Cape Vidal. Maybe its the game drive or maybe its the braai area. What ever the reason the gate process about 50 vehicles per hour.

Vidal Gate the wait

Leaving Richards Bay at 05h00 was an hour to late.

On the way to Cape Vidal

The iMfolozi River flowing healthy down to the ocean.
