KwaZulu
Natal South Coast Travel Guide
The coast between Durban
and the Wild Coast
is very well developed with small towns, many hotels, guest houses, golf
courses and other amenities. It's an excellent family holiday destination
with all the attendant activities and amenities and the weather is warm
and the sea water positively balmy. |
But
don't be misled by all that - it's a pretty exciting spot, too, with loads
to do, including abseiling, gorge swinging and white water rafting.
The diving off the South
Coast is excellent, with Protea Banks rated as one of the best shark diving
destinations in the world and the surfing is great.
Although this area is not
visited by the spectacular southern right whales so easily seen in the
Cape, the dolphin and whale watching is good, with humpback whales, bottlenose,
humpback and common dolphins regularly seen.
In
late June or early July, the South Coast comes alive as the sardine run
gets into full swing. Stretching all along the coast from just north of
East
London the sardine run is one of the most spectacular natural phenomena
in the world.
Anglers, sightseers, divers
and documentary film-makers alike crowd out the South Coast towns as well
as the Wild Coast.

Hibberdene is a small

named after C. Maxwell-Hibberd, the former postmaster-general of Natal.
Hibberdene is considered
the gateway to the Hibiscus Coast of Kwazulu Natal. It is a seaside
town situated 97 km south of Durban, halfway between Scottburgh and Port
Shepstone. Hibberdene has become a popular holiday destination with local
and foreign tourists. It is know as an affordable destination and for its
beaches. Hibberdene has five popular beaches, four of which are netted
and thus are safe for swimming. Hibberdene’s beaches are popular because
of the warm Indian Ocean flowing across its shoreline, making diving, snorkelling
and scuba diving very pleasant. |
