Palm Tree Lodge has always encouraged the use of the Gillies which are local guides to show visitors around, and they operate excursions such as fishing guides, tours of local attractions, game viewing trips to the nearby Thembe Elephant Park, Turtle Tours during the months of November to March, or transfers to the local beaches which are only accessible by 4x4 vehicles. A variety of bird species and animals from hippos, crocodiles and bull sharks can be seen in the area.
It is strongly recommended that travellers use 4x4 vehicles as the sands are often very thick. Please note that the use of quad bikes are forbidden as they are off-road vehicles and therefore not licensed to be on public roads; all roads around Palm Tree Lodge are considered public roads.
Palm Tree Lodge and all the local resorts are in a malaria area and guests are asked to take precautions while in the area. Feel the sand between your toes, fall asleep to the sound of palm trees rustling in the wind and marvel at the beauty of the plants and shrubs throughout Palm Tree Lodge; the ideal place to rest, relax and recharge.
