KZN South Coast positions coastline as fishing, tourism destination
South Coast Tourism says the 120km coastline is an ideal fishing destination for all seasons.
The KwaZulu-Natal South Coast is showcasing its 120-kilometre coastline as a premier fishing and coastal tourism hotspot. Spanning from Scottburgh to Port Edward, this region offers a variety of angling opportunities, including rock and surf fishing, deep-sea fishing, and recreational and sport angling year-round. Popular launch sites along the coastline include Umkomaas, Rocky Bay, Pennington, and Shelly Beach, where anglers can catch species such as yellowfin tuna, king mackerel, dorado, and marlin.
Dr. Vusumuzi Sibiya, the South Coast Tourism CEO, emphasizes the region's appeal: "The KZN South Coast, the entire 120-kilometre coastline, is classified as a Blue Flag, making it a fantastic fishing destination throughout the year, not just during the winter season. It's ideal for all seasons."
