Nature Reserves and Birding

Oribi Gorge Nature Reserve
This is one of KwaZulu-Natal's most spectacular natural settings, the scenic port Shepstone. Ideal for day-excursions, Oribi offers many delightful walks and self-guided trails to scenic spots in the reserve. There are numerous idyllic picnic spots on the banks of the river. Wildlife includes leopard, baboon, small antelope and a prolific bird life (The bird list numbers 250 with five kingfisher and seven eagle species).

Mpenjati Nature Reserve
This lush little coastal reserve is less than 10 minutes’ drive north from Leisure Bay. The 60-hectare reserve comprises a system of interlinking wetlands, grasslands and dune forests. The most popular activities are birding, fishing, swimming, and hiking. Two picnic sites on each bank of the Mpenjati River have barbecue facilities, ablution blocks, and a children's playground.

Wild water rafting - relaxed paddle or rapids on the mighty Umzimkhulu. Wild Abseiling - currently the highest natural commercial abseils in the world at 110 meters.
