Safety First
- Be road-aware: Our roads can be narrow and winding, so drive safely and enjoy the scenery.

Noise Levels
- Keep it down: Remember, your neighbor might be trying to enjoy the sounds of nature. No loud music, please!
- Party responsibly: If you're planning a bash, keep the volume in check. We want you to have fun, but not at the expense of others.

Save Our Planet
- Conserve water: It's a precious resource, so let's use it wisely. No car washing, please!
- Be electricity-aware: Avoid overconsumption, especially with aircons. Keep them set between 21-24 degrees, and switch them off when not in use.

Other Important Reminders
- Protect your ID, passport, cameras, and laptops. Losing them can put a damper on your holiday.

Essential Tips for a Kruger Park Safari

Planning a safari adventure in Kruger Park? Here are some crucial points to keep in mind for a safe and enjoyable experience:

1. Prebooking is Essential
For private drives, prebook your entrance at the Crocodile Bridge Gate, either at the gate (20 km away) or on the Sanparks website. Note that Kruger Gate is too far from our location.

2. Guided Safaris
Book open vehicle guided safaris through Louise at the Info Centre (3043 Olifant Drive) or WhatsApp her at 084 565 5916.

3. Preparation is Key
- Early morning entry: Get a head start on your safari adventure.
- Binoculars: Don't forget to bring a pair for optimal wildlife viewing.
- Informative resources: Visit the Info Centre for helpful books, maps, and guidance.

4. Safety and Etiquette
- No alcohol allowed: Keep your safari experience safe and enjoyable.
- Refreshments: Pack some essentials for hot days.
- Realistic expectations: Remember, Kruger Park is not a zoo – wildlife sightings are not guaranteed.
- Follow rules: Adhere to instructions on your entrance permit regarding parking and behavior at sightings.

5. Respect Other Travelers
When encountering a sighting that may cause traffic congestion, keep the lane opposite the sighting open for travelers who may need to pass through for a booked activity or, ahem, a "personal call from nature."

By following these guidelines, you'll be well-prepared for an unforgettable Kruger Park safari adventure!

# A Fin-tastic Find in Marloth Park!
Hey, fellow fish fanatics!

Are you tired of the same old filleted fish? Do you yearn for a seafood experience that's a little more... authentic?

Look no further than the Tin Shack restaurant in Marloth Park! This hidden gem serves up fresh catches with the head still attached, just like the ocean intended!

But what makes Tin Shack's fish so fin-tastic? For starters, their in-house chef hails from Mozambique and has the connections to prove it! He embarks on biweekly adventures to procure the freshest stock from his homeland.

The result? A culinary masterpiece that'll leave you hooked! With a variety of fish on offer, you might find yourself indulging in a succulent Barracuda one day and a flavorful Kingfish the next. Specifically, their signature "whole fish" experience often features Rock Cod or Red Roman from the Grouper family, available in three sizes to suit any appetite – from a solo indulgence to a shared feast with friends and family!

But don't worry, landlubbers and seafood skeptics – the Tin Shack's got you covered! Their diverse menu boasts an array of options, including prawns, sole, pizzas, and steaks, ensuring there's something for every taste and craving.

So, if you're ready to reel in the ultimate seafood experience (or just a great meal), the Tin Shack restaurant should realy be on your list. Their "whole fish" is the item that make them realy exclusive.

Stay tuned for more insider tips on the best eats in Marloth Park. In the meantime, get ready to dive into the festive season with a full plate and a happy heart!
