Game drives start straight from the lodge's 'front door' in comfortable 4x4 vehicles. The park is the only coastal wildlife sanctuary of its kind on the eastern coast of Africa and so the game safaris are completely unique. The big four are frequently spotted around the lodge.

Cultural activities include visits to local Saadani and Maasai communities. Saadani is the only wildlife sanctuary in Tanzania bordering the ocean. Key wildlife includes: hippos, crocodiles, lions, buffalo, elephant, giraffe, zebra, dolphins, Zanzibar galago, blue monkey, Yellow baboon, hyena, leopard and civet. Game viewing varies throughout the year and the area is known for its sightings of genets, porcupines, civets, bushbucks, bush pigs, yellow baboons and Vervet monkeys.
