UMHLANGA NATURE RESERVE
After our morning visit to stanger we took a walk through
the umhlanga nature reserve, it was brutally hot and humid but we managed to
see a few goodies including the black throated wattle eye.
The umhlanga lagoon nature reserve borders the northern
section of umhlanga rocks. It’s here that the beachfront o'connor promenade
ends and where the umhlanga lagoon nature trail begins. This is a must do trail
for keen walkers and nature lovers. A well-marked footpath meanders through
pristine coastal forest to boardwalks that span the ohlange river. Vervet
monkeys, tiny antelope and a kaleidoscope of butterflies and birds can be seen.
Look out for rare coastal red milkwood trees and blue duiker antelope. A stone
age midden can be found near the lagoon, a popular spot for parasailing and
windsurfing
