Umdoni Bird Sanctuary is situated in Amanzimtoti, KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. The sanctuary is often simply referred to as The Bird Park by locals or as Amanzimtoti Bird Sanctuary. The area is roughly 4 ha of land including a dam on a tributary of the Amanzimtoti River. There are picnic areas and forest trails.

A kilometer-long trail runs through the sanctuary. There are three hides on the trail from which visitors can watch some of the 150 species of birds that inhabit the sanctuary.{{cite web|title=Amanzimtoti Bird Sanctuary|url=http://www.durban.gov.za/City_Services/ParksRecreation/pnature/Pages//toti_Sanctuary.aspx|publisher=eThekwini Municipality 2011|access-date=8 July 2013}} The sanctuary is home to large flocks of spur-winged geese and white-faced ducks. The sanctuary was also home to the southernmost breeding pair of palm-nut vultures in 2009. Narina trogons are also often sighted here and the endangered spotted ground-thrush has been seen.

Blue duiker and endangered Cape clawless otters frequent the sanctuary.
