Area Info

An excellent base from which to explore the many famous wildlife destinations of the Elephant Coast Tourism Region.
The word "ISINKWE" is the Zulu translation for Bushbaby. These interesting nocturnal animals are classified under the primate family and frequent the lodge at night. We are close to several tourist attractions including the Hluhluwe/Imfolozi Game Reserve, Greater St Lucia Wetlands Park, Dumazulu Cultural Village and Emdoneni Cheetah Project.

The Elephant Coast is bound in the north west by the Ubombo Mountains, in the east by the warm Indian Ocean and in the south by the Umfolozi River just below the St Lucia Estuary which is part of a World Heritage site. The area is steeped in history containing a number of paleantological sites of scientific importance.

This incredible area is a perfect destination for all ages with something for everyone. There are dozens of game reserves, beautiful beaches, deep sea fishing and diving on a number of reefs, mountain trails, cultural activities and a number of historical sites. This is one of the few destinations where a visitor can see the Big 5 in a game reserve, and within a short half hour's drive, be able to watch dolphins and whales.
