South African National Parks (SANParks) is the body responsible for managing South Africa's national parks. SANParks was formed in 1926, and currently manages 21 national parks and 10 marine protected areas, totalling over 44,595 km2 (17,218 sq mi).
Many parks offer a variety of accommodations. The best-known park is Kruger National Park, which is also the oldest (proclaimed in 1898), and the largest, at nearly 20,000 km2 (7,700 sq mi). Kruger National Park and Table Mountain National Park are two of South Africa's most visited tourist attractions.
Though not designated as National Parks, other protected areas exist, such as game and nature reserves.
