Phinda Private Game Reserve is situated in the lush Maputaland region in northern KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It Borders the Simangaliso/Greater St Lucia Wetland Park which is a World Heritage Site. Phinda comprises nearly 57,000 acres of prime conservation land with seven distinct habitats that shelter an abundance of wildlife including Africa's Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, black and white rhino, buffalo) and over 380 bird species, while the marine diversity off the nearby coast of Sodwana is said to rival the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
Guests can look forward to exciting game-drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles led by experienced rangers and Zulu trackers, as well as thrilling optional activities on the water, in the air and on the beach.
