Kosi
Forest Lodge
The bedrooms
are thatched on wooden decks, the first bathroom is also under thatch and the
second bathroom is a reed-enclosed boma with the bath and shower thatched bedroom
on a wooden deck leading onto a reed-enclosed boma with the bathroom and shower
sunk into white forest sand. The lodge has become increasingly renowned as a
honeymoon destination.
From Kosi Forest Lodge enjoy swimming and snorkeling
in the warm Indian Ocean along the untouched Maputaland coastline. The Kosi
Lake Estuary comprises four lakes which change from crystal clear salt water
in the estuary through to black hippo waters in the Raffia Forest on the fourth
lake. Guided canoeing through the lakes, channels and the Raffia Forest is a
must. Bird watching is particularly good. The Sihadla Channel which feeds the
fourth lake is home to both Pel's Fishing Owl and Palm Nut Vulture, the only
fruit eating vulture in the world. Or simply enjoy our sultry weather and tranquil
surroundings in the sandforest immediately surrounding the lodge and our swimming
pool overlooking the lake.
Turtle tracking (November to January) is offered in the evenings. Giant Leatherback
and Loggerhead turtles make their way home having swum the length of the continent
in a return journey to the beach where they were born. Research has shown that
eggs are often laid within metres of where the mother emerged as a hatchling
years ago. Utmost precaution is taken to ensure that she is not disturbed.
