& welcome to the Zulu Kingdom South Africa’s Zulu Kingdom is the ancestral home of the Zulu - the People of Heaven - a name that provides just a hint of the wonders and experiences on offer. Stretching from the Indian Ocean in the east to the Drakensberg Mountains in the west, and from the Mozambique border in the north to the Mtamvuna River in the south, the Zulu Kingdom is a unique melting pot of diverse cultures, drawn from all corners of the earth - India, Africa and Europe. This enticing and fascinating multi-cultural destination has a wealth of experiences to offer discerning travellers - the majestic Berg, teeming Bush, endless Beach and monumental Battlefields. Share the view with eagles on a high mountain trail, track the spoor of the secretive leopard in bushveld game reserves, marvel at basking hippos in wilderness lakes or soak up the sun on a golden beach coastline washed by the warm Indian Ocean. Those who long for a cultural taste of the region can explore local townships and rural villages with a guide and learn more about traditional Zulu customs. Enriched by two World Heritage Sites, namely the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park and the iSimangaliso, choosing the Zulu Kingdom for your holiday destination will more than exceed all expectations...

Vibrant coastal towns and charming villages along this seaside route offer pristine beaches and azure bays, where bottlenose dolphins frolic off shore all year round.

Its convenient location provides easy access to King Shaka International Airport, Durban and the game reserves of Zululand and the Elephant Coast. A fascinating cultural mix exists in this region that was once part of the great Zulu empire built by King Shaka, followed by subsequent waves of adventurers, colonialists, the French Mauritian sugar cane growers and indentured Indian labourers. For culture and history, visit sites such as the Ultimatum Tree, Ndondakusuka or Fort Pearson, or the burial place of the Zulu King Shaka at Kwa-Dukuza and Nobel laureate, Albert Luthuli, at Groutville.

This idyllic and popular coastline is a haven of unique and less-explored places, and stretches south from the Umkomaas River to Port Edward. Set amidst rolling hills fringed by palm fronds and wild strelitzias, the region is characterised by sun-kissed beaches, azure lagoons and friendly seaside villages. Popularly known as the ‘Golf Coast’, this scenic region has 10 courses situated in close proximity to or even at the beach. Ocean activities, however, remain the main attraction, with most of the local beaches enjoying international ‘Blue Flag’ status. Excellent deep-sea diving areas at Aliwal Shoal and Protea Banks offer the opportunity of open water diving and shark cage diving. Every winter, there is the phenomenon of the Sardine Run - when millions of sardines migrate up the coast, accompanied by dolphins, other large predators and thousands of sea birds which feed on them. Depending on the temperature of the ocean and a few other factors, shoals of sardines have even come onto the beaches, to be scooped up by eager beach goers in every possible container. Andrenaline junkies can jump off Oribi Gorge with the highest swing in the world, abseil down the Gorge or go white water rafting on the Umzimkulu river. Somewhat less scary but equally fascinating is a visit the Umtamvuna Nature Reserve, which conserves plants found nowhere else in the world, or go birding - 400 bird species have been spotted along this coastline. Shops and farm-stalls along the road offer a feast of locally produced wares such as nuts, freshly ground coffee, fruit, candles and a wide variety of handmade crafts. Accommodation on the South Coast is affordable, and ranges from upmarket hotels, resort style hotels, boutique hotels, luxury B&Bs and guest houses, to self-catering apartments, chalets, caravan and camping facilities.

The Drakensberg Mountains are part of the 243 000 hectare uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park, which was added to the World Heritage Site list in 2000. The Zulu name, uKhahlamba, meaning ‘barrier of spears’, aptly describes this awe inspiring region.

These paintings are one of the Drakensberg’s greatest cultural treasures, with some 20 000 individual rock paintings having been recorded at different caves and overhang sites. This area of seasonally snow-capped peaks is divided into three regions, southern, central and northern Drakensberg and is a mecca for outdoor activities and the adventurous.The Northern Drakensberg is home to the spectacular Amphitheatre and the source of the Tugela (uThukela) River.
