ROCK TRAVEL & ACCOMMODATION GUIDE - KWAZULU-NATAL NORTH COAST, SOUTH
AFRICA

View
Map of Durban North Coast |
The
name Salt Rock dates back to the heyday of the Zulu Empire when
King Shaka’s handmaidens would come down to the coast here to collect salt
to trade with the colonials based in what was then Port Natal, and is now
Durban.
Although Salt Rock is one of the many towns strung out along the KZN North
Coast forming an almost continuous belt of hotels and residential developments,
it is a tad more laid back than its neighbours, for example, Ballito.
It’s a great family beach destination with safe bathing, a tidal pool and
a lovely shady caravan park that’s very popular with local families. |
