Our first ever Crocodile at Lake Sibaya.

By Sodwana Bay

Crocodylus niloticus Lake Sibaya is home to 2 highly aggressive marine animals – The Nile Crocodile and Hippos! So unless you can still see your feet in the water and don’t see any signs of Hippo or Crocodile activity, don’t swim in the Lake!   [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDSr5j5ofJ0[/embedyt]   Fun Facts about the Nile Crocodile: If you ever visiting Sodwana Bay, find out where Lake Sibaya is and make a day trip out of it! If you look hard enough you might be able to find a living log floating in the water or basking on the shoreline! Here is something we can all learn from the Nile Crocodile – Respect your elders! Nile Crocodiles are one of the few crocodile species that like to socialise… They don’t mind sharing an extra large meal or a school of fish. As long as there is enough they not picky who shares a meal with them… As long as you respect the hierarchy. The oldest and largest male always gets first debs on everything, the best piece of meat, fish and even the best basking spot. Sometimes the younger males can get a little cocky and challenge the alpha. That is a really poor choice on their part, since often times the younger male will be seriously injured or even killed in the fight…. Come on, everybody knows you don’t take on something that is bigger and stronger than you! READ ORIGINAL ARTICLE >>> READ NOW

Be Silent – Trusting at Sodwana Bay

By Sodwana Bay

Be Silent… Be Still and know that I AM GOD! Psalm 46:10 We all locked in at the moment and with these challenging times not knowing how our future would be after the CORONAVIRUS – we are keeping on going regardless & trusting God to provide and protect. To keep some sense of sanity amongst all the chaos and fear of the COVID-19 virus, we decided that making videos and keep our focus on better things. We located in Sodwana Bay ~ South Africa and we love this place so much that we packed up our lives and relocated to Sodwana. I think if we knew that the covid-19 lockdown would happen – we would most probably still be unhappy and stuck in a big town. Thank God that we did not… We pray the you and your family will be safe and endure this struggle we are going through… be safe and stay Home!

Vlogging 101 – What NOT to do! @ Sodwana Bay ~ South Africa – The 10th Video

By Sodwana Bay

This is really our funniest video we have ever made… Ok, that is really not saying much since we only have 10 videos so far… We are really trying hard to speak to the camera… So far it’s not going so great, it really takes a certain type of crazy to talk to a dead thing and pretend it’s alive… A part from that we are both super shy people – so even imagining we talking to someone is proving to be difficult… Tom is a little more confident than what I am as you can see he mostly speaks to the camera while I am forced to sit in the background – Would much rather be at the back of the camera than in the shot… We are trying and have our funny qwerks. This is just a small part of all the bloopers that we have recorded so far, unfortunately haven’t got any good talking footage yet, but we practicing every day… Experienced You Tubers make it look so easy talking to a camera… It really isn’t at least not to beginners! Enjoy the video – Hope it brightens up your day!!! Send us an email about any exotic or scary encounters you have had under the water or on land and your story might go viral!

Snorkeling at Sodwana Bay ~ South Africa – GoPro Hero – Our 11th Video

By Sodwana Bay

Whoohoo another amazing video added to our Youtube channel > GO SODWANA BAY!… This is a cool mashup of Sodwana Bay February 2020. This is only a really small part of all the exciting things we did this month… Unfortunately our song was to short and still busy tryna figure out the best way to mash songs together! Enjoy the Video Below… Hope you are as inspired as I am!!! Come visit Sodwana Bay! Watching this video and listening to this song really takes me back to my childhood… I guess at least 50% or more of us have a really fearful up bringing… We are literally taught to BE scared of the world… We are told never to go out at night alone, that we shouldn’t speak to strangers, we should never walk in the woods/forest/bushes, never approach a strange animal, don’t swim in lakes and ponds etc – etc. While most of these things are merited, I disagree with most of what my parents taught me in any case, I never did drugs, smoked or drank alcohol as a child, as an adult I keep drinking too a minimum… I am super grateful for the warnings against those dangers, but my parents also tried to teach me to be fearful of all the good things in the world, stepping out of bounds such as walking in bushes, just breaking away from society to be alone… As a child there use to be a type of forest behind most the neighborhoods we lived in. Trust me if there was something to find I found it… I loved it, it gave me incentive to walk my dogs each day and just find a quiet place far away from people… The thing I hated most was that my parents never approved so it was me and my best friend (my dog) little secret. I can relate so well to this song… I don’t claim to be brave, or recklessly stupid, I am well informed of the dangers in my environment. But just as this song may suggest, I am facing every fear head on. If Sodwana Bay has taught me anything it would be – Don’t be afraid of everything – Knowledge is not always power – If you respect nature it respects you – Just because something has the power to hurt you or kill you doesn’t mean that is it’s main goal – Don’t run from your fears rather take them head-on – Most times they more scared of you than you are of them it just depends on who folds first… Like I said before this song has great meaning to me… Don’t be afraid to break free from the curse of fear… Being brave always brings change – So break free of your fears and start LIVING!!!!
