Much like the rest of the Kingdom of the Zulu (KwaZulu-Natal), the beaches along the Hibiscus Coast, stretching from Hibberdene to Port Edward, are ideal playgrounds for soaking up the sunshine and swimming in the sea.

Every winter tourists are drawn to the region to witness an incredible array of ocean wildlife coming to feed on a giant sardine shoal , better known as the annual Sardine Run.

For travellers seeking a scenic experience, a steam train, The Banana Train Express, runs between Paddock and Port Shepstone on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The route runs through the hills and valleys along banana plantations and sugar cane fields, offering impressive views of this beautiful region.
