Craig Boddington Endorsed Outfitter

Based in the Kimberley district in the central part of South Africa, the Diamond Capital of the World, Hunt the Sun offers several concession areas across South Africa. South Africa is home to a large number of trophy species, and each are hunted in their naturally occurring habitat. Hunting is based on ethical fair chase and tailor made to suit your needs.

Your hunt will be strategically planned to suit your needs, allowing you to experience both the thrill of the chase and also to reflect on each day’s adventure - usually in front of a crackling log fire with a glass of South Africa’s finest wines.

Mike and Natalie's combined experience plus a team of highly competent professional hunters and support staff garuntee your time spent in the veld with Hunt The Sun will always be fun and entertaining as well as educational; a perfect opportunity not only to hunt, but also experience the African bush.
