The Pongolapoort Jozini Dam is home to hippos and crocodiles, and elephant, buffalo and various other wildlife can be spotted on the shores. The dam covers approximately 16,000-hectares, with a river stretch of approximately 5 km. The Pongolapoort Dam is the only dam in South Africa which is home to the fighting tiger fish, and Nkonkoni supports the catch-and-release method. Fishing takes place from boats, as well as from the shore. We have our own launch site.
Tigerfish can be caught all year round although fishing is best during the warmer months. The annual Tiger Fish Bonanza is held in September on the Pongolapoort Dam and attracts anglers from all over the country.
This area is also a bird watchers haven boasting over 400 species of birds, including less common species like the Heuglins robin, pink-backed pelican and osprey.
