The coastline stretches approximately 280km and this is where Tropical and Subtropical weather systems; river life and sea life meet. It is said that the Greater St Lucia Wetlands Park has more species of animals than the Kruger National Park and Okavango Delta.

Lake St Lucia: the largest salt water lake in Africa.
Marine eco-system: sandy beaches and the southern-most coral reefs on earth.
The Eastern shores: separates the lake and sea.
Mkuze swamps: caused by washed-down river sediment.
Western shores: forests and fossil marine life.

"The Greater St Lucia Wetlands Park must be the only place on the globe where the world's oldest land mammal (the rhino) and the world's biggest terrestrial mammal (the elephant) share an ecosystem with the world's oldest fish (the coelacanth) and the world's biggest mammal (the whale)."
