The coastline of KwaZulu Natal has a remarkable diversity of habitats. Long broad sandy beaches, huge undulating and shifting dunes and even forested dunes. The warm ocean has coral reefs, mangroves, salt marshes and estuaries.
Long, warm sunny days a subtropical climate and the warm waters of the Indian Ocean are perfect for those looking to relax on the KwaZulu Natal coastline. In mid summer heat and high humidity can create uncomfortable days. Traveling north up the coast towards the border of Mozambique, the climate becomes almost purely tropical.
Sardine Run - The Greatest Shoal on Earth
Every year during the winter months of June and July in South Africa, one of natures greatest events take place. Millions of little sardines abandon their spawning waters of the Agulhas Bank located in the southern waters of South Africa where the cold Atlantic Ocean and warm Indian Ocean meet.
Coelacanths - living fossils
Until 1938, the coelacanth fish was thought extinct, but then fishermen off the coast of South Africa found a living coelacanth and things were never quite the same again.
Sodwana Bay Scuba Dive Destination
Sodwana is situated 400km north of Durban near the Mozambique border and as such enjoys a tropical climate. The combination of tropical sunshine and the warm Aughlas current which flows over the reefs, has allowed the formation of a unique coral reef dominated by colourful soft corals.
