7 of the Best Eco-Friendly Vacation Destinations

If South Africa has been on your travel list for a while, now's the time to go. However, instead of heading for the hustle and bustle of Cape Town and Johannesburg, Niamh recommends you "leave the main road and travel to Bulungula Lodge, which is located at the place where the Bulungula River meets the Indian Ocean. This stunning location is owned by the local community and is completely solar- and wind-powered. Not only will you be able to completely disconnect from your everyday life, you will also be able to enjoy rainwater showers, canoeing, and night after night spent gazing up at the starlit sky."
