With over a dozen great golf courses along 120km of Indian Ocean Coastline, can you excuse the locals 'fore' calling themselves the Golf Coast! Of course, that does neglect their marvelous beaches with irritating (for eskimoes)! year-round sunshine and unusual tropical bushlands with whale-watching, hiking, diving, birding, surfing and a wide range of adrenaline and sedate activities on offer.

The South Coast might not have it all, but it`s as near as dammit! Port Shepstone has the vintage narrow gauge steam train, the Banana Express, for lazy day--trippers which hints at the enticing interior filled with rolling hills and Zulu folklore. Not for nothing is the South Coast known as one of South Africa`s premier holiday spots.
