Activities

On a recent dive by our diving partner Adventure Mania to Sodwana Bay’s caves and overhangs, they had the pleasure of bumping into one of the reef’s best-dressed residents: the Threadfin Butterflyfish (Chaetodon auriga).

Next time you see hatchlings scrabbling towards the surf at Sodwana during one of Sodwana Bay Lodge’s famed Turtle Tours from November until March, remember: their story doesn’t end in the waves.

Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned ocean lover, a Whale Watcher tour is your chance to hear the marine symphony of the humpback whales up close.

Birding at Sodwana Bay Lodge is more than just ticking names off a list—it’s an immersive experience in one of South Africa’s most pristine landscapes.

Gear up, cast your line, and embrace a catch and release policy that ensures the sea remains teeming with billfish for years to come.
