Intaka Island is a 16 hectare bird sanctuary in the heart of Century City (near Canal Walk) and is home to 120 species of birds (70 are seen regularly) and 177 species of indigenous plants. Most of the birds are (predictably) waterbirds
There is a 2km self-guided walk around the area from which visitors can view sanctuary at their own pace. There are 9 educational stations along the trail offering more information on what you are seeing. There are also guided tours on offer for those who would like more information.
There is a heronry on this route which offers to opportunity to check out the breeding birds.
- Because of its proximity to Canal Walk, Intaka is a good add-on to a trip out to the mall
- Be sure to check on the heronry to see the breeding birds.
