Saadani National Park
Saadani Game Reserve was gazetted in 1964, covering an area of some 350 sq km from the Wami river in the south to the Mligaji river in the north, with the Arusha-Dar es Salaam railway line as the western boundary.
Saadani is the perfect union of beach and bush. Located just 70km north of Bagamoyo and immediately accessible by road from Dar es Salaam, Saadani is easily visited on a day trip or short weekend safari. The Wami River, which passes through the park and empties into the Indian Ocean, hosts a large population of hippos, crocodiles, flamingoes, and many large bird species. Giraffe and wildebeest can be spotted and elephants have been seen playing on the beach.
