Great Parks Of Africa

The Addo Elephant National Park on the south-eastern coast of Africa was founded in 1931 and is home to over 450 elephants and other mammals; it was created as a response to the alarming decline in elephant specimens.

Harsh storms, wildfires, and heavy seas define Table Mountain National Park; how its native animals and plants work together on the parched hillsides and windswept cliffs to form symbiotic partnerships that ensure mutual survival.

iSimangaliso Wetland Park's unique mosaic of ecosystems; grasslands, forests, swamps, lakes, beaches, and coral reefs, and the incredibly diverse animal life its varied climatic zones support.

In the centre of South Africa is an ancient landscape that was once an inland sea. Now it is a mosaic of unique habitats. Life here has evolved ingenious solutions to survive. There is nowhere in South Africa quite like the Karoo National Park.

In the southern reaches of Africa's great Kalahari basin, everything is made tough. Ancient rivers harbour water deep underground, and these hidden lifelines forge a fragile link to survival. This is the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park.

In a park where land meets sea, the natural elements combine to create wonderful variety. Cola-colored water feeds forests green and dense. Fire and wind fuel growth in great diversity.
