Attractions
iSIMANGALISO WETLAND PARK
Jewel of South Africa’s Coastline
St Lucia is a small town at the heart of South Africa’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site.
ST LUCIA
The iSimangaliso Wetland Park consists of 8 interlinking eco-systems, 25 000 year old coastal forests and 220km of coastline and beaches.
With a unique mosaic of ecosystems – swamps, lakes, beaches, coral reefs, wetlands, woodlands, coastal forests and grasslands, the area supports an astounding diversity of animal, bird and marine life.
734 GENERA & 2180 RECORDED PLANT SPECIES
Indigenous trees found in the area include Dune Sweet Thorn, White-milkwood, Coast Strelitzia, Buffalo-thorn, Dune Myrtle, Bush Tick-berry, Dune Star-apple, Coast Red-milkwood, Cape-ash and Thorny-rope Flat-bean to name a few.
The area provides the ideal habitat for mangrove trees of which 6 species have been recorded. These are the White mangrove, Black mangrove, Red mangrove, Eastern mangrove, Kosi mangrove and Cannonball mangrove. The White, Black and Red mangroves are commonly found along the St Lucia Estuary.
Delicate flowers such as African-dogrose, Candy-striped crinum, Paintbrush lily, Fireball lily, Flame lily and Lagoon Hibiscus provide colour to the landscape throughout the year.
RICH HISTORICAL CONTEXT
“iSimangaliso” meaning “miracles” derives from a rich historical context.
Named after the historical fable of “Ujeqe”. Ujeqe is the keeper of a Zulu King’s secrets and has to be buried with the King when he dies.
When King Shaka died, his Ujeke fled to Tongaland. Upon his return he said: “I saw wonders and miracles in the flat land and lakes of Thonga”.
From that follows an isiZulu saying that if you have seen miracles, you have seen what uJeqe saw.
