KwaZulu-Natal has the reputation of being South Africa's playground. Tropical temperatures make the region a year round destination, whilst the cooling sea breezes help to make the hottest days more tolerable. Durban itself is a bustling if slightly jaded town, with great beaches, casinos, restaurants and nightlife. There are many excursions in the surrounding areas, including safari trips. There is some great shopping to be had, don' miss the BAT craft centre down by the docks. If you want to combine some beach with a safari we recommend you travel slightly further afield to one of the top safari destinations, Phinda. Situated in close proximity to the Indian Ocean, Phinda also has access to some of the finest beach areas in South Africa. Our accommodation (with the exception of Phinda) is tailored towards golfers but if you would prefer to be based in the city we have plenty of other places to recommend. Facilities at all the hotels we feature also cater for non-golfers with beach clubs, spas, tennis courts and local excursions. Food in the area is of an exceptionally high standard with some of the best and freshest seafood to be found in South Africa.
