South Africa is a place of magnificent. It has so much to offer, that you can see why thousands of people (and birds) flock here every year. South Africa is famous for offering breath taking safari holidays and is the perfect climate for a spot of bird or mammal watching, but did you know that it also offers fantastic opportunities for scuba diving?

The North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal is the perfect place for a scuba diving session but there are somethings to be aware of when planning a dive here. There are no shark nets on the beach and there is often strong currents in the water, so it is recommended not to go too deep and also to avoid swimming between dusk and dawn. Mosquitos are common in this area and it is advised that you keep covered up as much as possible and do not leave doors and windows open without a screen in place.

As well as a bit of Scuba diving and snorkelling, KwaZulu- Natal also has a large population of Leatherback and Loggerhead turtles. Why not book a trip on a glass bottom boat or hire a pedalo and go and explore these beautiful creatures for yourself.
