Experience the Greatest Ocean Safari at GweGwe

Sardine Run all-inclusive fly-in Ocean Safaris 2026

Every winter, millions of sardines move up South Africa’s Wild Coast - pursued by dolphins, whales, sharks, gamefish, and seabirds in one of nature’s most breathtaking spectacles.

And next year, you can witness it all right on our doorstep at GweGwe Beach Lodge!

Your Sardine Run Ocean Safari Includes:

  • Return flights to GweGwe Beach Lodge from Durban’s Virginia Airport
  • Freedive or snorkel with expert marine guides among the action
  • Daily boating excursions, launching directly from our beach
  • Luxury accommodation in a sea-facing suite
  • All-inclusive dining, drinks, and land-based adventures in Mkambati Nature Reserve

More than the ocean- Beyond the sardine run, explore wild coastlines, waterfalls, and gorges, and immerse yourself in the rich culture of this untouched region. Run, hike, mountain bike, kayak, surf, and SUP through the extraordinary Mkambati Nature Reserve.
