Visit St Lucia Estuary and Wetlands Park

St Lucia Estuary and Wetlands Park 

The Time is Now


St Lucia Estuary is a small hamlet at the Southern Entrance to The World-renowned iSimangaliso Wetlands Park. South Africa's very first and very own World Heritage Site. Once a mere fishing destination developed in a post World WarrII economy, the main Tourist focus of the region built around the functioning of a marine Estuarine system. 
 

Sail Fish in abundance

As one of the Bill Fish species, Sailfish is one of the sought after Game Fishes. As the Worlds fastest-growing Sport, Angling Tourism is a huge market and well exploited. With strict Catch and Release Policies in The iSimangaliso Wetland Park targeting this species successfully is a very unique experience.

Recent rainfalls in the Wetlands and the catchment areas of the Rivers feeding the Wetlands has saturated the water table of the park and creatures very seldom seen in public open spaces are now frolicking and basking all over in the sun. Such an abundance of wildlife on display its absolutely Amazing.



After Many Years The Estuary Mouth is finally open 

The opening of the Estuary mouth was well-received among nature and bird lovers. a Functional marine estuary is after all one of the most important life support systems on earth. The diversity it brings to marine life is second to none. St Lucia Estuary is said, by leading Expert Dr Allen Witfield, as supporting 50% of South Africa's marine life in the form of a safe nursery. Home to Mangrove Swamps, Hippopotamus and Crocodiles. St Lucia Estuary, when functioning also is home to Bull Shark Pups and provides safe residents to the spawning of species that populate the Tugela Shelf.

Water Birds in Abundance 

St Lucia Estuary and the Wetlands system offers a home to more than 530 migrating and resident bird species. Species like African Spoon Bill frequent the fast-flowing waters of the tidal mouth. Life happens with tidal interaction. This is where everything began. Life on Earth was spawned in the swamps of functional tidal Esturines.

Para Gliding - Tours Africa

Para Gliding

Cape Town South Africa 


Adventure Sport


Back in 1966 a pilot, Domina Jalbert, was given the rights to patent this Arial floatation device. The first working version was manufactured in 1971. Now you can become part of the long linage of adventure seekers that literally float on the wings of a breeze. What starts off as an adrenaline rush gradually soothen into a soundless weightless glide with opposing forces of mother nature working in symbiosis. 

While Gravity tugs at your legs the updraft of airflow and man-made wings gliding you silently, but oh so gently through the sky towards terra firma. Devouring the breathtaking views Cape Town, The Mother City, has to offer. This is the blissful feeling of total freedom. 

Come and join on a tandem ride of a lifetime. Gliding towards Earth at the end of a parafoil suspended hundreds of meters above the earth.
