Die donkerder maande is elke park se beste seisoen, wanneer die bos yler is of water skaars is en diere makliker gesien word. ’n Waarneming is nooit gewaarborg nie.
Beste tye van die dag
- Die warm ure van die dag. Die Nile Crocodile het die son se warmte nodig voordat dit beweeg.
- Koue oggende en nagte. Weggesteek totdat die dag warm word.

Vrae wat reisigers vra
’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Nile Crocodile op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.
Which parks and reserves are best for the Nile Crocodile in South Africa?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Nile Crocodile at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Phinda Private Game Reserve, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, Marakele National Park and Timbavati Private Nature Reserve and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.
Where can you see the Nile Crocodile in South Africa?
The Nile Crocodile is most recorded in Mpumalanga (49% of records), Limpopo (28% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (18% of records), based on 3,542 iNaturalist observations. 43 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Nile Crocodile on site or nearby.
When is the best time to see the Nile Crocodile?
The Nile Crocodile is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal; Phinda Private Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
What is the Nile Crocodile?
The Nile crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) is an African crocodile, the largest freshwater predator in Africa, and may be considered the second largest extant reptile in the world, after the saltwater crocodile.
