Attractions
The Berea suburb of Durban lies perched on the crest of a ridge above
the city, an exclusive residential suburb, littered with an eclectic mix
of architectural styles that include large Victorian, Edwardian, art deco
and modern homes that bring to mind the colonial days of yore, and support
the city’s epithet as the last British outpost in South Africa.
The views from this garden suburb with its wide tree-lined streets and
Indian mynah cacophony at sun down, offer some of the most superb sea
and city views in the city.
The city centre is an easy bus trip, the beaches are close by, the suburb
is renowned for its pavement restaurants and diverse mix of African, Indian
and European cultures, and there are a couple of shopping centres here
that offer easy and accessible shopping.
Durban’s Botanic Gardens on the eastern slopes of the ridge that
began as a site for growing experimental tropical crops, today offer a
herbarium, an orchid house, a cycad collection, a garden for the blind
and a charity tea garden.
Fashionable Florida Road that leads off the Ridge, south of Mitchell
Park towards Windermere, is a hive of art galleries, restaurants and fashionable
boutiques in a wash of colour and quasi-colonial, semi-bohemian lifestyle
where, what began as a largely residential area, today is a humming commercial
part of the city that deserves a visit for the restaurants, coffee shops
and listed buildings.
And whilst you’re up on the ridge, take a trip to Mitchell Park,
the tree-filled family favourite with a resident colony of tortoises,
ducks and a wonderful aviary, although the coffee shop leaves a lot to
be desired, rather head off to Florida Road or the harbour if it’s
fabulous fare you’re after.
Durban Beachwood Golf Course
The Durban Country Club Beachwood Course is part of Durban Country Club
lying about 2 km north of Durban Country Club. Although it borders the
Indian Ocean, Beachwood does not quite have the accentuated undulating
fairways so common to Links courses, especially those of the Country Club
Course.
Durban Botanical Gardens
The Durban Botanical Gardens are famous for the original specimen of a
Cycad (Encephalartos woodii) that is still widely acknowledged as probably
the rarest plant in the world, as well as for its extensive collection
of South African Cycad species
Sports Stadia
The ABSA Rugby Stadium, home of the Natal Sharks as well as the newly
erected Moses Madhiba soccer stadium is 3 km from Norfolk House..
Durban Country Club
The Durban Country Club boasts 2 championship course; namely the Durban
Country club course and the Durban Country Club Beachwood Course. Opened
in 1922, the Durban Country Club is said to be one of the best golf courses
in South Africa.
Natal Sharks Board
The only organisation of its kind in the world, the Natal Sharks Board
protects beach users in KwaZulu Natal against shark attack with an extensive
and effective network of shark nets that extend along 320 kilometres of
coastline.
Royal Durban Golf Course
Flat but interesting championship course within the confines of the Greyville
horse racing track, and close to the city centre.
Several holes border on the racetrack on the opening nine, so don't come
to Royal with a slice. This course is one of the most demanding golf courses
in the country.
uShaka Marine World
uShaka Marine World in Durban is a world-class entertainment and tourism
destination. At the end of Durban's Golden Mile is the beginning of uShaka
Marine World - spanning over 15 hectares of prime beach front, uShaka
Marine World is Africa's largest Marine Theme park.
