An elephantastic sanctuary.
Step into a National Geographic/Lonely Planet expose at Addo Elephant National Park, where majestic elephants and giant rhinoceros’ roam, tawny lions prowl, and wiry buffalos graze in their natural habitats. The only park in the world to house five of Africa’s seven major biomes and the infamous "Big 7“ (namely the elephant, rhinoceros, lion, buffalo, leopard, whale and great white shark) in their natural habitat, Addo Elephant National Park is undoubtedly one of Africa’s greatest national treasures and a must when visiting the region near Port Elizabeth in South Africa.
Ornithologists will also be interested in Bird Island and St. Croix Island, home to the largest colony of gannets and African penguins respectively.

No immunisation is needed for travel to the park because it is a malaria-free area.
