Overall, spending time at the beach will change your perspective on life. And that perspective sure will change for the better! So, take advantage of the time you spend at Sodwana Bay Lodge by soaking up the benefits of ‘vitamin sea’

Vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) have been living in the woodland and coastal forests of KwaZulu-Natal for a very long time, and Sodwana’s lush vegetation, trees and reliable water make excellent vervet real estate.

The Livingstone’s turaco is often easier to locate by ear than eye. Its call is a distinctive, gruff and increasingly hurried succession of kow notes—more or less like an indignant conversation conducted somewhere above your head.

If you've come to Sodwana expecting the usual suspects, prepare to be pleasantly surprised. Meet the Purple-crested Turaco: gloriously colourful, slightly prehistoric, surprisingly agile and apparently unconcerned with whether anyone has seen a bird quite like it before.

Sodwana Bay Lodge offers something quite special. It’s wild without being inaccessible, beautiful without being pretentious and adventurous if you feel like it.
