Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation Area, Transboundary protected area along Mozambique, Eswatini, and South Africa borders.

The Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation Area spans 4,195 square kilometers across three countries, with coastal plains between Lebombo Mountains and Indian Ocean.

The Peace Parks Foundation established this conservation area in 2000, linking multiple territories to create a substantial elephant protection zone.

The Tembe-Thonga communities maintain traditional fishing methods and celebrate the annual marula fruit festival within the conservation boundaries.

Access points include three international airports: OR Tambo in Johannesburg, King Shaka in Durban, and Maputo International in Mozambique.

The protected area serves as a nesting ground for leatherback and loggerhead turtles, featuring a marine monitoring program since 1994.

GPS coordinates: -26.25000,31.88000
