UMLALAZI NATURE RESERVE - CAMPING & CARAVANNING

 
Umlalazi Nature Reserve has the rare distinction of offering two unique and unusual attractions: regular sightings of the rare palm-nut vulture, and the fascinating raffia palm- the largest palm in the world. Water-skiing, boating and canoeing can be enjoyed on the Umlalazi River and the surf and lagoon fishing is excellent.

Vast stretches of uncrowded beaches are outstanding for swimming, surfing, windsurfing and angling as well as for long beach walks. Umlalazi is superb for birding and there are three self-guided trails through mangrove swamps, dune forests and along the edge of the river. There are two campsites, Inkwazi with 36 sites and Indaba with 14 sites, set in open areas with shady trees only a short walk from the beach.

The large spacious sites take caravans or tents and have shared cold water taps, communal plug points and barbecue facilities with firewood and charcoal for sale. The ablutions have hot and cold running water, toilets, showers, baths, dishwashing facilities and coin operated laundry machines.
Inkwazi also has playground equipment.

Umlalazi Camp also features thirteen comfortable log cabins with full self-catering facilities for guests.
