The Elephant Coast, with its rich diversity of wildlife, has many internationally renowned game reserves and parks and, while they range in size, they all provide the refuge necessary to support our region's wildlife and bird populations which have inhabited the area for thousands of years. With over 500 species recorded in the area, and over 30 different established birding localities, the Elephant Coast is a birding hotspot. The region provides forest, grassland, wetland, bushveld, mountain, estuarine, coastline and open ocean habitats, making it South Africa's most diverse area for birding.
