Updated | By East Coast Drive
Not only is he an actor, but he's also passionate about saving lives. Bongani caught up with Sihle Xaba to get to know more about this passionate man and dedicated father.

Sihle Xaba is making waves on the beach and also on our screens.
The father of two (soon to be three) is well known for his role on the SABC 1 drama series 'Bay of Plenty', and 'Uzalo'.
Sihle lives for saving lives and has been a lifesaver for over 21 years on our Durban beaches. He even starred in a 10-episode documentary called 'Durban Beach Rescue', which aired on the travel channel, aimed at showcasing what challenges lifeguards face on a daily basis.
Bongani took some time to get to know him better and to find out how he went from saving lives on the beach to entertaining us on our screens.
Take a listen below:
Well done, Sihle. We wish you everything of the best for your future!
