My best sightings of elephants so far has been at Nyamundwa (I don’t think I can pronounce this one), which is 10km East of Phabeni Gate. This lake was one if the few that I have been to that still had a lot if water in it during the dry season.
When I arrived there was already a few cars there. You can park right at the edge of the lake and, if you are lucky, you can see elephants taking a bath! There were maybe 15 or so that were playing around in the water and just relaxing in the morning sun.
Further East, close to Lower Sabie is Sunset Point, which is also good for game viewing, especially around sunset. I saw quite a few hippopotamus here. They are hard to spot at first if they are almost fully submerged, but if you wait they will return to the surface.
I also saw some crocodile here, which is perhaps why it is important not to get out of your car!
Last night I took another night drive and saw hyena for the first time. There was a mother and two cubs. I will add pictures once I download them from my camera.
