Blue Flag Beach

The one kilometre Marina Beach bordering the Estate is a beautiful sandy beach with an adjacent tidal pool. It is one of the country’s few beaches with the distinctive ‘Blue Flag’ status. The Blue Flag in an international award given only to those beaches that meet excellence in safety, amenities, cleanliness and environmental standards. The beach is also easily accessible for the disabled.The Marina Beach lifeguards are always in attendance and facilities are maintained to top-class standards throughout the year. The Indian Ocean’s warm Mozambique current guarantees pleasant year round sea bathing conditions.

The Hibiscus Coast

Living up to its name, Kwazulu Natal’s Southernmost Hibiscus Coast dazzles with iridescent blooms against a lush green backdrop, meeting a perennially-warm saltwater playground for dolphins and cruising whales along 70 kilometres of picture perfect hideaway coves and seemingly endless golden sands. It’s readily noticeable that several Hibiscus Coast resorts and hamlets were founded during our Colonial era and named after famous holiday destinations in the ‘Olde Country’.

The Annual Sardine Run

While the inviting stretch of Indian Ocean presents the year-round delights of frolicking dolphins and majestic, cruising whales, this enchantment peaks each June or July with ‘The Greatest Shoal on Earth’ – when we offer the best possible ‘ringside’ seats for one of nature’s truly grand spectaculars. Visitors can marvel at 20-thousand dolphins plus thousands of sharks, hundreds of seals, uncountable game fish and the occasional whale – all herding and feeding from millions-strong sardine shoal, while massed squadrons of sea-birds rain down from above. The Zulu Kingdom’s annual winter Sardine Run is a wonder of the world attracting more attention from around the globe.
