\n\t\t\tThe start of the journey\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\tEstablished in 1998 – iSimangaliso Wetland Park
\nIsibindi Africa Lodges was awarded a concession to open a luxury lodge at Mabibi beach on the Maputaland coast, and shortly after in 2004, Thonga Beach Lodge opened its doors. Situated in the Isimangaliso Wetland Park, the lodge resides in a World Heritage Site. The project is one of the country’s first pioneering community developments that successfully married local communities and the private sector. It was the third lodge Isibindi Africa Lodges opened, a company that focuses on the upliftment of rural communities residing near protected areas, through partnerships in wilderness developments located in prime conservation areas. The lodge offers exceptional marine and lake activities focusing on the conservation of these natural resources through a host of guided activities. We also encourage our guests to join our numerous community activities and learn about rural Africa and its abundant traditions and intricate resource uses.\n\t\t

\n\t\t\tMabibi Primary School\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t

Mabibi Primary School, situated in the heart of Mabibi, is the only source of education within this community. The Isibindi Foundation has invested extensively in this small school over the years by funding major infrastructure projects, supplementing the nutrition programme, providing curriculum support and training to staff, as well as paying the salary for a teacher’s assistant.<\/p>\t\t\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDonate to this project\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPreview\n\t\t\tmodal-\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
