Hunting
Our tailor made South Africa luxury hunting safari is built to cater to your hunting desires and needs. All hunting is spot and stalk in an ethical traditional African hunting style. What does this mean? When the trophy that you wish to hunt is spotted from a mountainside, vehicle or on a hike, a plan is made between you and your PH (Professional Hunter) to stalk that trophy. Should you have any disabilities that need to be catered to, that is absolutely a priority and a plan will be made. This outfitter is dedicated to ethical hunting and catering to the special needs and desires of every client. No safari is just alike!
The hunting property is about 10,000 acres and is located about a mile off the beach. There is something surreal about having the luxury of the beach and lodging combined with hunting. It is truly a unique experience!
