THE ELEPHANT
MARSH
We have the massive privilege of bordering 3km of the Elephant Marsh. This is a wetland of international importance and officially declared as a Ramsar Site by UNESCO through the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands. Hence, conserving this area is of the utmost importance.
OUR MARSH.
The marsh comes alive with birds, specifically aquatic birds. It is a true showstopper, a birdwatcher and photographer's paradise. You’ll find flocks of pelican and flamingo in the hundreds, but it certainly doesn’t stop there. A huge variety of birds call the marsh home during their migratory patterns. Be sure to remember your camera. You might also come across the odd crocodile and pod of hippos. And naturally, the marsh is teeming with fish to sustain the sheer number of birds.
During our first phase of operations, our challenge is to conserve and protect the 3000ha Community Conservation Area (CCA) directly adjacent to us. You’ll have access to the marsh by boat.
