Frequently asked questions
First and foremost, grab your beach gear — think swimsuits, sunblock and a beach towel – to soak up the ‘Vitamin Sea’ along the city's stunning coastline. Throw in your appetite as Durban is equally as famous for its mouth-watering cuisine and some comfortable walking shoes for exploring. The rest will depend on what your ideal travel itinerary looks like.
When you think of Durban, it’s likely you’re picturing the sun-soaked stretch of Golden Mile, but that’s only the beginning. Durban is a culinary and cultural melting pot, from the spice-filled Victoria Street Market to the ever-stunning Durban Botanic Gardens, museums and art galleries. Be sure to take a trip to uShaka Marine World, a world-class aquarium and water park, and for a taste of adventure, head to the iconic Moses Mabhida Stadium and take a thrilling leap on the Big Swing. Then, when you need to unwind, 40-minutes by car and you’ll be gazing across The Valley of 1000 Hills. And let’s not forget safaris. Durban is home to some of the best-kept safari parks.

Durban experiences tropical weather throughout the year, which can lead to some debate as to the best time to visit. As a general guide, summer (mid-October to mid-February) is hot, humid and not for the faint-hearted, while autumn is known for thunderstorms. Winter (May to September) and spring (August to mid-October) are ideal for getting out and about exploring.
Soak in the sun on the Golden Mile, take a surfing lesson, eat your body weight in bunny chow, wander the bustling Victoria Street Market, visit uShaka Marine World, embark on a heart-pounding shark cage diving adventure (if you dare), explore Durban Botanic Gardens, go museum hopping, go cafe hopping, go on safari – the list is endless!
