So You Think You Know South Africa?

Kruger may be better known, but South Africa’s iSimangaliso Wetland Park has its fair share of wildlife, including hippos, Zambezi sharks, crocodiles, antelope, and over 500 species of birds.

Located in the northeastern part of the country, just south of Mozambique, iSimangaliso boasts five ecosystems and can safely be described as “South Africa’s answer to the Great Barrier Reef.” I get the sense that visiting here would be something like spring break for “Planet Earth” fans.
