The coastal town of Amanzimtoti is the gateway to the KwaZulu Natal South Coast and one of the most popular holiday destinations in South Africa.

'Toti' as it's more commonly known to the locals, which is just 27km south of Durban, hugs a shoreline of beautiful golden beaches along the warm Indian Ocean.

As is common in the Zulu Kingdom, Amanzimtoti is blessed with 12 months of excellent weather, ranging from hot summers to mild sunny winters. The ideal climate for leisure activities that centre around the un-spoilt beaches, rivers and lagoons. Swimming, surfing and angling top the list and the world renowned scuba-diving site Aliwal Shoal lies just 15kms south of Amanzimtoti off Umkomaas.

Golf enthusiasts have a virtual menu of courses to choose from. The South Coast , boasting no less than eleven golf courses from Amanzimtoti to the Wild Coast, has been aptly renamed
"The Golf Coast" by the South African golfing fraternity.

The growing Eco-tourism industry in the area and the adjacent South Coast offers hiking and walking tours, eco-diving adventures, whale and dolphin watching, as well as eco-adventure sports like white water rafting, abseiling and rock climbing in the Oribi Gorge.


Once a year, during June/July, a unique natural phenomenon, the Sardine Run, takes place in the KwaZulu Natal coast's waters. Millions of the tiny silver fish migrate north along the coast in huge shoals followed by thousands of game fish, dolphins and sharks.

For the Shopping enthusiasts, The Galleria is a family orientated regional mall in excess of 81000 square metres. Galleria is home to a myriad of great restaurants, entertainment, fashion stores, convenience stores, speciality stores, major banking institutions and department chains and offers several must-see elements including movie theatres, a fabulous children’s play zone,
