Kwazulu Natal

The sheer majesty of KwaZulu-Natal or the Zulu Kingdom will take your breath away. Under the hot African sun, the cobalt blue Indian Ocean, Mangrove swamps and limpid lagoons, give way to rolling green hills and indigenous forests which shimmer in the distance before they reach the Drakensberg mountains. It is home to the hospitable Zulu and Tsonga people as well as the Greater St Lucia Wetlands Park, declared South Africa's first World Heritage Site. While you are here, enjoy such diverse activities such as turtle tracking, a horse back safari, snorkelling and diving, a Battlefieds tour, golfing or a wilderness trail through Big Five territory. End your holiday with a stay at the beach, swimming, surfing or just working on your suntan. Four beaches on the Kwazulu Natal coast have International 'Blue Flag' status. For those who enjoy walking the Drakensberg World Heritage Site offers awe inspiring scenery and a wealth of rockart paintings.
