About

Durban's Point-area beach sits beside uShaka Marine World, Africa's largest marine theme park, with shark nets and lifeguards during bathing hours. It anchors the start of the six-kilometre Durban Beachfront Promenade and is popular for kayaking, kite surfing and swimming. Pet guides list it among the city's most dog-friendly beaches, with leashed dogs welcome on the sand and along the promenade, though paid parking at the Marine World lot is the easiest option nearby.
