Tidal Pools of the Natal South Coast

The Natal South Coast has been a popular holiday destination since colonial times. This is reflected in the large number of small towns and tidal pools found between Durban and Port Edward. The Natal South Coast Railway brought holidaymakers to the tidal pools and beaches. The remains of the rails are still visible, as it was built close to the shoreline.
