Durban holidays are perfect for seekers of the sun and sea and appreciators of the cosmopolitan culture. Durban’s golden sandy beaches - South Beach, Central and North Beaches - are idyllic with their fine sands and smooth, tepid waters. Durban’s Business District, a bustling area with a large number of accommodations, is the closest to the South Beach.

The South beach boasts a bustling promenade replete with a range of lodging options, eateries, shops and amusement areas. The Sea World Aquarium and Dolphinarium are the South Beach’s major attractions for children. An array of water sports can be enjoyed here – snorkeling, diving, water skiing, boating, sailing and windsurfing.

The North Beach, with its rolling waves and the warm Indian Ocean, is perfect for swimmers and surfers. If you fancy spotting stingrays and dolphins in their natural habitat, deep-sea diving facilities are available. Boats for whale spotting at Hermanus can also be hired. A range of stylish and budget accommodations can also be found at the North Beach.

The KwaZulu-Natal province is a surfing haven. Between June and September, water and wind conditions are perfect for swimming, including fishing trips. From the inland lakes and rivers to the Indian Ocean, a wealth of marine life can be found at KwaZulu-Natal.

Teamed with fantastic luxury hotels, villas, cottages, moderately priced and cheap B&B inns and lodges, alfresco and indoor restaurants, bars and cafes, and vibrant nightclubs and discos, the KwaZulu-Natal province is the perfect place to be for unforgettable holiday experiences in Durban.
