Meals
During your stay at Sodwana Bay Dive Lodge a full cooked buffet breakfast and dinner are included at the onsite Leatherbacks Restaurant. Breakfast consists of a hot buffet, toast, cereal, fruit and tea or coffee and can be enjoyed before heading down to the beach for your first dive of the day. Dinner is chosen from a full menu and includes a choice of steaks and seafood. The portion sizes are very generous and the food is highly rated.
Please note that drinks with dinner are not included in the price. Lunch is not included, but Leatherbacks is open over lunchtime and offers a variety of snacks and light meals at very decent prices. Adjoining the Leatherbacks Restaurant is the on-site bar, where you can relax and enjoy a drink after your dive and well into the evening, possibly whilst watching any current sports events on the TVs there.
Meals at Hilltop Camp are served at the Mpunyane Restaurant and consist of a hearty full cooked English breakfast and a la carte dinner. The dinner offers a variety of both hot and cold foods, and during good weather a traditional braai (barbeque) may be served.
Please note that it is recommended that you book your table for dinner earlier in the day during busy periods.
Cold drinks and alcoholic beverages may be enjoyed in the eloquently decorated safari lounge, which offers an astoundingly beautiful view of the surrounding valleys within the reserve.
