So the first time we visited Sodwana Bay, we spent almost the same amount of money in 2 days that we could have paid for a Rhino card and paid so much less to enter the iSimangaliso Wetland Park.
The rates have dropped since our first visit there, as of 1 December 2018 iSimangaliso Wetland Park has severely reduced their prices to accommodate their visitors, but even with these reduced prices it is better and cheaper to get your Rhino Card instead of paying a high entrance fee every time you wanna visit the beach. After all the whole reason for visiting such a great hidden gem is to visit the beautiful beach and ocean!
But whats more is that the Rhino Card doesn’t just give you a huge discount to enter iSimangaliso Wetaland park but also to the other 10 jewels of Sodwana Bay listed below:
Coastal Forest
Eastern Shores & Cape Vidal
False Bay
Kosi Bay
Lake Sibaya
Lake St Lucia
Maphelane
Sodwana Bay
uMkhuze
Western Shores & Charters Creek
All these Jewels are part of the iSimangaliso Wetland Park and there for you can use your Rhino Card at any of these parks.
Pricing:
Your basic Rhino Card costs you R300 per person (under 60 yrs of age) or R250 per person (over 60 yrs of age) for a year’s membership. There is no juvenile rate.
Two people will pay R 545, ONLY THOSE 2 PEOPLE enter for free. Three people R800 and four people R1000. However, as long as ONE of the cardholders is present, any person can enter with you for free because you have paid for memberships.
Your Rhino Card will have your ID and name on it, plus your partner’s ID, plus the number of memberships you have paid for eg. No. 1 will be printed onto the card where there is only 1 membership purchased; eg. No. 2 will be printed on the Couple card; eg. No. 4 on a Family Card where 4 memberships have been purchased, etc
***You pay one flat fee once a year and only pay R5.00 each day you enter the park.
So how do you get your Rhino card?
