KwaZulu-Natal Beaches Holidays

The Sugar Coast’s sparkling seaside sanctum, Umhlanga Rocks and the aptly named Dolphin Coast, lures kite boarders to ride the north easterly winds, surfers to pull into the barrel of waves and divers to swoop into an underwater world of multicoloured coral reef.

Honouring its Zulu history, Umhlanga takes its name from the isiZulu word for ‘place of reeds.’ These wetland shoots grow along the Ohlanga River and lagoon in conservation hotspots where mangrove, hibiscus and Stone Age seashell midden keep company with pelicans, warblers and sunbirds. Threaded with beautiful walking trails and pierced with crimson sunsets, Umhlanga Rocks celebrates the riches of the coast.

If you are looking for a true wild beach escape, then Thonga Beach should be on your wish list. Nestled in a remote coastal forest and just steps from a long stretch of sand, the waters here attract leatherback turtles and humpback whales.

When you are ready to discover KwaZulu’s Indian Ocean beaches and its underwater treasures, we can connect you with the people who have experienced KwaZulu Natal’s shimmering waters and beautiful beaches first-hand.
