December fever! How to have the best holiday ever in KZN
De-bender is coming in hot...
It's the most wonderful time of the year. Beaches are packed, the sun is out, and GP, MP, and FS number plates seem to outnumber those of our province.
Finally, December is here, and we're giving you the inside scoop on maximising your holidays with us.
The tourist hotspot will always be a winning bet. Sunny days at Thompson's Bay, uShaka Marine World, or the Mahai Cascades are a surefire bet for relaxation and the creation of memories.
Cast your gaze far above and at the historically significant forest below at Dlinza Forest Ariel Boardwalk in Eshowe, which is a massively underrated visit. If you're craving some time with animals, take a day-trip north to say "Hi" to the hippos at the St Lucia Estuary, or go for a snorkel tour at Cape Vidal.
