”Sibuya” (meaning we will return) is a 2400 hectare, Malaria-free, Big 4 Game Reserve and is the only game reserve in South Africa accessed exclusively by riverboat.

Guests arrive and park at reception in Kenton-on-Sea, and the unique experience starts immediately with a 12km boat trip from the sea up the magnificent Kariega Estuary to "River Camp" or "Forest Camp". River and Forest Camps, situated on the banks of the Kariega River, are rustic luxury tented camps that will leave you with memories of how simple and enjoyable life used to be before the distractions of our modern age. All our tents, on raised wooden decks, accommodate two adults sharing either in king size or twin beds. Additional camp beds are available for young children sharing with parents. Mosquito netting on all doors and windows and en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold water ensure that a night at Sibuya River Camp is comfortable and safe. The soft glow of lanterns, the water gently lapping on the boats and the sounds of the African night, will be the only distractions as you reminisce in the warm embrace of the evening fire, while our ever friendly camp staff prepare the finest African fireside fare.

These small intimate camps, with professional guides and only 5 tents each, affords guests the opportunity to follow a personalised programme of activities. A mixture of game drives, river cruises, canoeing, swimming and guided bush or beach walks will enthral those with a desire to fill the day, whilst hammocks in the trees or a fishing line dangling in the water will suit those who wish to take it easy. Antelope abound, including the rare Bontebok and Oribi. Giraffe, Zebra and 4 of the Big 5 make this a truly memorable experience.
