I have visited Durban many times and I always head for the botanic gardens as it is the most beautiful place in Durban. There are always an abundance of flowers and the bird life there is amazing especially around the small lake, and of course there are the monkeys! This garden is a very pleasant way to spend a couple of hours away from busy Durban and it is free!!

A fun fresh water world of slides and pools, uShaka’s Wet ‘n Wild caters for the adrenaline junkie and those less adventurous!
Reviewed By Alfie1608
When friends from Bothaville visited us in Amanzimtoti, the obvious choice for me was to take them for an outing to Ushaka Marine World. Needless to say, they were impressed beyond comprehension with what they saw and experienced. The highlight of the visit being the dolphin show which was both informative and super exciting. They had their pics taken with the heroes post the show, and following a light snack at one of the many fast food outlets, we headed back home, tired but completely gratified.

10. Sri Sri Radha Radhanath Temple

We went to eat the delicious very affordable pure vegetarian food in the restuarant below the temple. We also went into the temple for a few minutes to enjoy the peace and tranquility after what was a hectic drive to get there. There is also seating in the garden and around the moat, to relax in the evening, which we did after the meal. Just off the main motorway and visible from the motorway so you can not get lost.
