There are also incredibly lush parks and open spaces dotted around the neighbourhod for residents to take advantage of.

For a good meal you can head for one of the restaurants on the beachfront, Wilsons Wharf in the harbour area or join the trendy crowd in Florida Road.

The CBD is the main business hub in Durban. A number of large businesses have their offices in the area and it is still a thriving retail centre.
The Golden Mile stretches from Ushaka to the Suncoast Casino Complex. Its broad promenades make it perfect for running, cycling, walking the dog or skateboarding. The warm waters, protected by lifeguards and shark nets, are popular for swimming and surfing.
