 The Port of Durban by cokes The Bay of Natal (Durban Bay) was one of the few natural harbours available along the east coast of southern Africa between Algoa Bay and Delagoa Bay (now Maputo Bay). The nice thing about the port is that the ships come in and out right infront of you. What a Awesome sight. The port of Durban operates 24 hours a day 365 days a year. The entrance channel has a depth of 12.8m from Dart Chatum. The channel width is 122m but the intention is widen the channel by a further 100m commencing in late 2005. During daylight ships are supposedly restricted to 243.8m length with a maximum width of 35m and a draught of 11.9m, or 12.2m according to tide and harbour master's clearance. This is frequently granted and ships up to 270m length are common. Nighttime restrictions are for a ship length of 200m and a beam of 26m, maximum draught of 11.6m. The harbour master has to be consulted for permission for larger vessels. Leave a Comment

 Hans & Lori on a Ricksha by LoriPori One of the fun things to do is RIDE A RICKSHA. Rickshas were brought to Durban by the Hulett family. By 1904, there were 2000 registered ricksha pullers. Our "puller" made it a lot of fun for us as he jumped up and down like an animal would and made all these funny noises. We had a great time, even if it was just for a few minutes. The posted price at the time was 5 rands per person. Tips appreciated. Leave a Comment Address: Durban Beachfront

 Zulu Dancers at Phezulu by GerryFM The Phezulu Safari Park is set in the spectacular Valley of 1000 Hills, a few minutes drive west of Durban. This is a great half day trip, where you can enjoy a traditional African meal and get a look into the intriguing culture of the Zulu people. You will be treated to some traditional Zulu Dancing and will get to visit their typical "bee-hive huts". It is geared for the tourists, but they also offer you a chance to visit a current Zulu village, where you can get an insight on how the Zulu people live today. Leave a Comment
