St Lucia is an attractive village lying at the southernmost tip of iSimangaliso Wetland Park, a World Heritage Site (formerly Greater St Lucia Wetland Park). This thriving eco-destination owes its popularity to the close proximity of various attractions and things to do in the area. Surrounded by the estuary and Indian Ocean, St Lucia is almost an island. Here you can do a boat ride to see hippos and crocs, kayak on the lake, visit the Crocodile Research Centre, or do a hike or a horse trail. Nile crocodiles sun themselves on the banks; hippo roam the streets after dark and leopard are seen occasionally. Humpback Whales migrate along the coast from June to November. Loggerhead and leather back turtles lay their eggs on the beautiful sandy beaches from November to March. St Lucia offers a number of walking trails where small antelope, mongoose and Samango monkeys can be seen. Birdwatchers are up for an exciting experience with around 450 recorded species to tick off. Not too far off is Mkuze, one of the best birding spots in South Africa. Also a long-time hangout for keen anglers, St Lucia has a good selection of tackle and bait shops. An assortment of seafood restaurants line the banks of the estuary.

FROM JOHANNESBURG: Take the N12 road to Witbank. Turn off to Ogies. Pass through Bethal, Ermelo, Piet Retief and Pongola. Continue South along the N2 past Mkuze and Hluhluwe. Take the turn-off left to Mtubatuba and St. Lucia (R618). As you approach Mtubatuba turn left towards St. Lucia +\- 25km. FROM DURBAN: Take the N2 North-40km after the off-ramp to Richardsbay-turn-off towards Mtubatuba. After crossing the bridge that links St Lucia to the mainland, you will pass through a security check-point (no crime here, thank you very much) you will stop at a T-Junction. At this point you turn right into the main road of St Lucia - Mackenzie Road - drive down all the way to the end of the road, taking note that we do not have any traffic lights here, down, down, do not turn left or right at any time. You will cross a small yellow traffic circle, drive down into the forest until you will find a cul-de-sac. We are the last establishment on the right hand side of the road.
