Home Base
Wild Africa's home base is the village of St Lucia. It is one of the only villages in South Africa, which is surrounded by a Natural World Heritage Site. The Greater St Lucia Wetland Park lies on KwaZulu-Natal's northeastern coast - The Kingdom of the Zulus. This park is 328 000 hectares and was declared South Africa's first Natural World Heritage Site on 1 December 1999 by UNESCO. Lake St Lucia has also recently been added to the world's "Living Lakes". Five ecosystems lie within eyesight of each other. The warm Indian Ocean forms the Eastern border and Lake St Lucia forms a barrier on the western side.
Since a third of KwaZulu-Natal's area is owned by KZN Nature Conservation Services, this area is any eco-tourist's dream and an experience never to be forgotten. The area is teeming with every manner of life: humpback whales, dolphins, deep-sea fish including game fish and bottom fish, turtles - both leatherback and loggerhead, Nile crocodiles, hippopotami, elephants, lions, leopards, buffalo, rhinos, small and large antelope, over 500 species of birds, and so much more.
ST LUCIA VILLAGE:
This small tourist village is an attraction in itself. There are only about 300 permanent residents who cater for the following:
Accomodation for about 4500 guests and 2500 campers, 3 supermarkets, a butchery, several fishing bait and tackle shops, more than 10 restaurants, gift shops, fruit and craft markets, 2 gas stations, a library, post office, hair salon and 2 doctors.
