Lake St Lucia, iSimangaliso Wetland Park, KwaZulu-NatalWelcome to the sacred family owned and run Makakatana Bay Lodge. It is situated on the western shores of Lake St Lucia, within the iSimangaliso Wetland Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. This protected natural wonder gem boasts Africa’s largest estuarine system – Lake St Lucia - that more than 1000 hippo and 1200 crocodile call home, as well as our treasured soaring coastal dune forests sheltering pristine beaches. The Park is brimming with vibrant birds and wildlife, including rhino, buffalo, lion, elephant, hyena, cheetah and leopard.
Makakatana Bay Lodge at a Glance
You get to experience all of this on our adventure filled beach, lake and park full-day safaris with our passionate and knowledgeable rangers. At Makakatana we also pride ourselves on your fine dining created by our Chef Nadia, who plans her delightful tastes and spaces from the heart, while being inspired by our many beautiful resident fish eagles. You will also enjoy peaceful solitude in the comfort of one of our eight luxury game viewing suites, that are spacious, set on raised decks and equipped with outside showers and baths. It is here that you can cherish the unexpected choir skills of the hippo, the harmonising of their penetrating and powerful grunts that leave an unforgettable imprint of Africa in all our visitor’s hearts.
