KZN’s North Coast is a landscape shaped by time and tide, where land and sea meet in a rich and ever-changing environment. Here, mangal estuaries spill into the warm Indian Ocean, creating a haven for kingfishers and mudskippers, whilst verdant dune forest’s shelter shy antelope and are alive with the sound of birds calling.
The air is filled with the scent of salt and forest, the sounds of waves and wildlife. The beaches stretch wide and golden, a meeting place for land walkers and ocean wanderers alike.
This is a place to move - to listen - to breathe. Whether following the tide’s edge, or retreating to the cool shade of the canopy, the North Coast has many wonders, just waiting to be explored!
