- For over 20 years, we have been a premier hunting and touring destination, offering exceptional opportunities for both bow, rifle and muzzleloader hunters. Our experienced hunting guides, friendly staff and management are here to ensure you experience the adventure of a lifetime. Our 250 000- acre hunting area varies from coastal thickets, open plains, wooded valleys and hilly slopes to majestic mountains and semi-arid plateaus beyond. The terrain and topography of the Eastern Cape is the most diverse in South Africa and the available hunting species list seems almost endless. From the majestically massive Eland to the tiny Blue Duiker and many species in between. Our hunting areas boast well-worn game paths, while the cover is perfect for walk-and-stalk or ambush hunting, emphasizing close encounters. Hunters and their quarry have equal chances here, with blinds and strategically placed lookout points giving the hunter the best possible opportunities to harvest the trophy of a lifetime. Additionally, we feature a fantastic shooting range for target practice and clay-pigeon shooting!
- Our lodges offer direct access to a large lake with sunset cruises, canoeing, and bass fishing right at your doorstep. Scenic coastal villages and seemingly endless white sand beaches are a short transfer away with world-class shore based and deep-sea angling available. Crown River Safari is the perfect getaway for couples, families, or friends seeking time together in the heart of the bush, close to the coast and within sight of the mountains, free from distractions. A symphony of bird calls welcomes you, and the breathtaking beauty of nature surrounds you. The magic truly unfolds at night when a starlit sky blankets the reserve. Whether you seek hunting, fishing and active pursuits or prefer relaxation we have something for everyone. On-site masseuses are available for massages and our sun-drenched patio with luxury loungers, refreshing beverages and lake vista views provide the perfect setting for a relaxing stay.
- The Eastern Cape, fondly known as "The Adventure Province," is rich in natural resources, from lush grazing lands to rocky peaks. It is home to the Big 7, vast herds of plains game, a myriad of birdlife, and incredible marine life, including 27 species of whales and dolphins.

With its malaria free mild climate, it offers some of the finest destinations, nature reserves, game parks perfect for photography and from rugged cliffs and green bushland to expansive beaches, majestic mountains, quaint coastal villages, rocky coves, and serene lagoons, the Eastern Cape is a haven of beauty. Whether you're in search of adventure or looking to rejuvenate your spirit, this region promises a world of wonders.
