We were distressed to see the Southbroom beach washed away after heavy rains but were delighted to see that it’s back to its pristine best. There can’t be a more beautiful family friendly beach on the entire Kwa Zulu Natal coast. What a lovely atmosphere! One can chose to spread one’s towels on the gently sloping lawn or opposite the lagoon. This blue flag beach has excellent safety standards and the lifeguards are very pro active. The surfing is top notch and surfers and body- boarders can easily dive off the rocks to catch their next big waves instead of battling through the surf.There is also a safe tidal pool for the little ones. The Riptide Restsurant is right on the beach and offers excellent teas and light lunches and even early dinners in season.

This is a nicer, and quieter alternative to the popular Marina Beach. Pristine, unpoluted and beautiful. Nice barrells in the waves for surfers or bodyboarders. Lovely lagoon with diverse birdlife. We saw spoon-billed storks, African cormorants, African Darters, yellow billed storks, malachite kingfisher and Goliath Heron on one walk up lagoon drive.

Really enjoyed my afternoon here. I was fortunate to arrive a few minutes before feeding (by coincidence, as I could not find much detail on the web). Summer and winter feeding changes, so be aware. The talk was so interesting and I learnt a lot about these interesting creatures. Well presented and the staff so helpful. Well worth a visit. They also have a few snakes, Art shop and Wine Cellar

We just loved the natural rock pool leading into the sea. Enjoyable salt water pool! We were able to participate in the Parkrun on the sand and alongside the beach early the Saturday morning which added to the delightful experience. One felt "at home" with the beauty and tranquility surrounding you. Even late at nigh we encountered fishermen having a go at fishing. Very very nice experience.
