We all know this stadium, built for the 2010 soccer world cup, now part of Durban's skyline! Lot's of activities here, walk on the arch (the top) of the stadium, get an adrenaline rush on the super high swing or just go to a concert/soccer game, like you would normally do in a stadium.

The promenade along the beachfront of Durban, a nice place to walk, run, ride your bike, enjoy a coffee or just jump in the sea! It runs from Ushaka marine world to Blue Lagoon at the Umgeni River. A good 8km stretch of promenade.

See Durban and the harbour while enjoying your Italian food. I recommend ordering the Chateaubriand bearnaise- the most delicious beef fillet flame grilled at your table. A real unique experience.
