REGION - KWAZULU NATAL

KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

KwaZulu Natal, home to the famous Zulu tribe, is the most traditionally African province in South Africa. Driving through KwaZulu Natal, local stalls with superb basket work and beading will enthral you. The Zulu’s are a friendly people that will welcome you whole heartedly.

The climate in KwaZulu Natal is a major draw card. The subtropical climate means hot days and warm nights with lots of opportunity to get a tan. In fact as a beach destination, KwaZulu Natal comes out tops for swimming, surfing and diving.

The popular combination of beach and safari is a particularly easy desire to fill in KwaZulu Natal. Here you will find some of the great game reserves of Africa.

For some old fashioned exercise combined with striking views, visit the Drakensberg Mountains and the KwaZulu Natal Midlands. Hotels offer guided walks in the mountains, horse riding and a host of other things to keep you and your family busy.

If history is your interest, then spend some time in the Battlefields of Isandlwana or Rourkes Drift, where the great battles between the English, the Boers and the Zulu’s are brought alive by your guide.

Contact us at Southern Destinations, your KwaZulu Natal experts, for first hand advise on where to go and what to see.
