| | St Lucia & Surrounds |
|
St Lucia is a critical element of the Elephant Coast and is an enclave within the World Heritage Site and presents the entire range of accommodation options - from back-packer to ultra- luxury - and while the approach from Mtubatuba is breathtaking, nothing compares to views of the surrounding magic from the village itself. A particular nearby attraction is the Crocodile Centre that features a breeding programme for two endangered African species - the dwarf and long-snout crocodile. Mission Rocks is a popular outdoor barbeque spot some 15 kms north of St Lucia village.
