Set within the pristine landscapes of the Greater Kruger Park Region, Wild Rivers Private Nature Reserve stretches along a 6-kilometre riverfront adorned with lush riparian forests, home to a rich variety of flora and fauna. Spanning 2,600 hectares, the reserve, bordered by the Blyde and Olifants Rivers, showcases diverse landscapes with rocky outcrops and savannas where plains game freely roam. While elusive leopards lurk in the shade of ancient trees and rivers host hippos and crocodiles, the absence of the "big five" allows residents to explore on foot. Gravel roads enhance the bush living experience, transforming trips to town into mini-safaris. With breathtaking scenery, diverse veld types, and abundant wildlife, Wild Rivers Private Nature Reserve is a hidden gem in the heart of nature.
Situated in the beautiful southern reaches of Africa, the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park is a joint venture between South Africa, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. The Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park has united a number of game parks and reserves in these three countries to create a vast cross-boundary wildlife sanctuary. It is the first phase in a long-term plan to create a transfrontier conservation area measuring 100 000 square kilometres. It is home to vast stretches of pristine African bushveld dotted with an array of wildlife.
Resting on the southeastern shore of Mozambique, roughly 485 kilometres of Maputo and 25 kilometres of Inhambane, the magnificent Barra Beach (or Barra) is an idyllic holiday destination. Pristine, gorgeous soft sands line the turquoise Indian Ocean waters, which are warm enough for swimming year-round. The beach stretches far enough to provide a good location for walks, and is lined by coconut trees and wonderful beach resorts. Brightly coloured fish inhabit the reefs offshore, making this an excellent spot for scuba diving. There are also ample opportunities for fishing, surfing, kite surfing, quad biking, safari tours, dhow trips to the breathtaking Pansy Islands, and guided walks through the mangroves. Make sure to indulge in a little bar hopping to try the delicious local cocktails and culinary specialities.
