Makakatana Bay Lodge
Where in the world can you experience the magic and wonder of unspoiled beaches, vast wetlands, game drives, and an unforgettable boat cruise on Lake St Lucia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This family owned and run Lodge is situated on the western shores of Lake St Lucia, in the iSimangaliso Wetland Park in KwaZulu-Natal. You will get to experience the home to more than 1000 hippo and 1200 crocodile on a personalized adventure filled safaris exploring this treasured park. Passionate guides take you on full-day safaris to explore the Wetlands, coastal dune forests, pristine beaches seeking out wildlife and over 530 bird species.
The Lodge itself only has 8 individual suites set privately in the dune forest and interconnected via raised walkways, it is small and intimate. An outside boma is the prefered location for dinners around a fire under the african skies each night.
Makakatana is proud to be a Solar Safari Lodge that runs on a hybrid system.
