Sibuya is a large game reserve further inland on the Kariega River. They have various types of antilope and birds, as well as several rhino, elephants, giraffes, and even lions (if you're lucky enough to see them).
Sibuya offer various types of day trips, all of which include being picked up - and brought back - by boat at the reception in Kenton-on-Sea (so you don't even need to have a car!). The boat ride up the Kariega river takes around 45 minutes, at the end of which you will start with the guided game drive, followed by a buffet lunch.
If you have a car and you're up for a longer drive, then we highly recommend Addo Elephant Park, which is 1,5 hours from Kenton-on-Sea. It is best entered through the South Gate by Colchester.
Addo is a self-driving game park, and it has so many elephants that you are nearly guaranteed a sighting. As you explore the various roads by car, you will likely also see lots of other animals such as Zebra, Impala and Kudu.
