Rocktail Bay Lodge adjoins the Maputaland Marine Reserve within a world heritage site. The secluded lodge is situated metres from the Indian Ocean and offers perhaps the most private beach experience in South Africa. Ten wood and thatch "treehouse" chalets are raised up on stilts into the forest canopy. There is a lounge/pub and dining area where meals are served under thatch or under the giant Natal Mahogany trees and a swimming pool and sun deck for those who want to relax around the lodge. Activities available include game drives, snorkelling, scuba diving, walks, bird watching and fishing. In the summer evenings you can take a walk or drive and look for the sea turtles laying their eggs. This is a naturalist`s and photographer`s paradise.
