ZULU HUT IN DUMAZULU

ISIMANGALISO WETLAND PARK

FEATURED Port of Call

RICHARDS BAY, SOUTH AFRICA Known as a gateway to the traditions and culture of Zululand, the port city of Richards Bay along the northeastern coast of South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal province is rich with opportunities to experience legendary African wildlife and unspoiled coastal splendor. Go on a game drive in renowned Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park to see elephants, giraffe, lions, buffalo and leopards, perhaps gaining a glimpse of the park’s star residents, white rhinos. Take a leisurely cruise on Lake Saint Lucia within iSimangaliso Wetland Park – designated a World Heritage site by UNESCO for its biodiversity and unique ecosystems – where hippos, crocodiles, pelicans and flamingos are familiar sights. Feel the beat of traditional drums and experience living history in a pair of cultural villages, Shakaland and DumaZulu, which recreate the 19th-century era of King Shaka and paint a vivid picture of the Zulu nation’s contributions to modern African society.
