Durban Beach

Holiday Resolution


Durban Beach lie along a stretch of golden sand known locally as the Golden Mile. From Blue Lagoon's fishing spot
to the sunken Vetch's Pier, a host of flat, sandy beaches invite visitors to set down umbrellas and towels and while away hours in the sun.

Blessed with warm water, robust waves and seemingly endless stretches of sandy beaches, you'll soon understand why Durban (eThekwini) is everyone's favourite seaside playground.

Warm and sunny 320 days a year, Durban Beach offer public amenities, protective shark nets, beacons to indicate safe bathing, and lifeguards on duty for most of the day.

Premier beaches in Durban include body boarding hotspot, North Beach and swimmers' delight, South Beach, while Bay of Plenty and Dairy are top surfing breaks. Swimming takes place at all of these beaches, closer inshore.

Addington Beach is close to the harbour entrance and, being at the southern end of Durban Bay, is more protected, with smaller waves and a flatter contour that lends itself to those learning how to surf.

On the other side of the Bluff which marks the harbour entrance the coastline receives the full force of ocean swells which makes for powerful surf at Cave Rock, Brighton and Anstey's.
