KwaZulu-Natal on the east coast of South Africa is highly undervalued as a tourist destination, and often overlooked in favor of destinations like the Kruger National Park and Cape Town.
Having grown up in this amazing province we may be a little biased, but through exploring it ourselves have discovered that this sunny corner of South Africa offers it all - a vibrant and diverse culture, majestic mountains, untamed big five bush experiences and possibly the most unspoiled beaches in the country. Not to forget that KwaZulu-Natal's winter weather (April-July) is the best in the country!
KwaZulu-Natal highlights:
Unspoiled sandy beaches and warm water.
Malaria-free big five game reserves.
Two UNESCO World Heritage Sites (iSimangaliso Wetland Park and the uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park).
A vibrant and diverse blend of cultures.
World-class diving and surfing destinations.
We would love you to come and explore this magical province for yourself, and have put together a list of our top picks in the province to get those travel juices flowing!
Our dream KwaZulu-Natal road trip is a circular self-drive route covers 1600 km and takes in all of the highlights of KwaZulu-Natal including the berg, big five bush and spectacular beaches.
