Some of you may have had the opportunity to
visited Africa or have gone on a safari adventure.
If you have not visited Africa in Real Life,
that’s OK, you can experience a virtual version in Second Life.
There are a few
sim designers that have created replicas of different countries in Africa for
you to explore.
The
Drakensburg Mountains
This is a mountain range sim set in
KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Here you will find romantic music, horse trails,
mountains and of course nature. If you walk to the top of the mountain as
though you were hiking, when you reach the summit you will see the entire sim. The mist gives visitors sense and feel as
though they are really way up high in the mountains. This is a clever idea.

AFRICA – Beach
This is a beach set in an African theme. If
you like African music, you will hear beats being played at this venue. They
host African Night parties and it provides a friendly and inviting atmosphere.
This sim has been open since January 2014 and has already had 5546 people in
traffic. There is also an African art gallery for you to explore.
African
Safari
If you have always wanted to go on a safari
trip in real life but have not had the chance. Here is your chance in Second
Life!
As
soon as you TP onto the sim you are greeted by a herd of elephants, with an animated
Lion hiding out in the tall grass. I decided to take the balloon ride to get a
view of the entire sim, it is an easy
way to get around the island but enabled me to enjoy the sim and the creations
much better.
Wherever you go in Second Life, there is an
adventure to be had. One of the best things about this virtual world is the
ability to explore many different cultures. I have no doubt you will have a fun
time exploring Africa in Second Life.
