OVHE's Guidebook to Christmas Bay & surrounds :)

Sightseeing Adventures

KZN's North Coast is beautiful and has an abundance of wildlife and history.
Christmas Bay is a closely guarded treasure of the North Coast. The drive out to the area is exceptionally pretty as the road hugs the coastline for 10 kms and gives superb views over the Indian ocean. This vacation home treats guests to grand views of this same stretch of beautiful coast line. A firm favourite with families, locals and visitors, the Christmas Bay's known for being secluded and quiet, and its warm waters are enticing. With white gold sand surrounded with rocks and beautiful ocean scenes, at low tide, it becomes riddled with snorkelling spots. The long open beaches are great for long morning strolls, especially if you head north, around the 'point' and continue on towards Tinley Manor. The Bay is also within walking distance of Ballito's lagoon. There are no restaurants on the beach so plan ahead and pack snacks for when you get hungry.

Thompson's Bay beach is lovely and clean. It's sheltered from the wind by the cliffs on either side of the bay, and it's tidal pool is filled with marine life. Don't miss the awesome photo opportunities when walking through the "Hole in the Wall!"

Harold Johnson Nature Reserve is spread across the banks of the Tugela River on KwaZulu-Natal's North coast. The nature reserve protects KwaZulu-Natal's indigenous floral habitat and wildlife. There are walking trails, picnic sites, and a variety of bird life and wildlife. There are also a number of self-guided trails to explore, some of which are lined with medicinal plants traditionally used by the Zulu people and the early white settlers. Fort Pearson and Ultimatum Tree are both national monuments and lie within the nature reserve. Their historical roots date back to the Anglo-Zulu wars. There is a small entrance fee of R10 for adults and R5 for children (subject to change without notice.)

Things to do on KZN's North Coast
The jewel of the Simbithi Country Club is undoubtedly the magnificent 18-hole golf course, designed by Peter Matkovich. Thoughtfully-placed greens that hold a well-struck shot, pristine fairways and a layout that allows you to play every club in your bag. South Africa’s first executive course, Simbithi has a par of 60 comprising par-3s, par-4s and one par 5. Each hole is intriguingly named after the area it occupied when Simbithi was once farmland.
