Greetings from Nibela Peninsula on the shores of Lake St. Lucia between eastern Shores on the east side and False bay on the west side.  To see where we are on the map, use our in-web navigation, depending on your device, find the more pages option, then choose map from there.  or just click here Crested Guini Fowl at Bird Island Lodge So back to the question of why you should consider paying us a visit and relaxing in some awesome  unspoiled locations on the Nibela Peninsula, or perhaps some nearby bucket list attractions / locations like the Hluhluwe park, the Umfolozi park, Sodwana Bay, False Bay, St. Lucia, Kozi Bay, Bona Manzi bird hide or nearby summer water pans. Then there are the Flamingos, Pelicans and other water birds at the Mkhze swamps on the North East side or HluHluwe river on the North west side...,   Lots of real great birding opportunities, and we have an in house bird guide, Sfiso Mdluli.  More about him in future posts once I have got to know him a bit better,

Nature and wildlife are abundant here at Kwa Nibela, and we would like you to come pay us a visist. The Nibela peninsula is an awesome #BirdingLocation  with flamingos,  pelicans, herons and many other water birds found where the Mkuze swamps  and the Hluhluwe rivers spill into the St. Lucia Estuary.  Then there are the many other terrestrial birds like doves, finches and horn-bills that  frequent the area as well. Spiders, wasps, ants and butterflies are also plentiful, as are the many other creepy crawly things, like SCORPIONS and beetles, with the occasional tortoise  and some not so common birds. come pay us a visist you may be fortunate to see a local resident SKILLY  (Skilpad) the tortorse that floats around and enjoys the sun shine her at Bird Island Lodge in Kwa Nibela... come pay us a visist You need to be carefull of these fellas, coz their sting can be quite painful. them fellas with small pincers are more venomous than these guys with big fat pincers.....  always a pleasure
