CULTUREDurban Golden Mile
Beachfront energy on the Indian Ocean
Durban's Golden Mile is a long beachfront strip lined with promenades, beaches, hotels, food stops and city energy. It captures the distinct coastal culture of Durban, where surf, curry, humidity and a strong Indian Ocean identity all meet. It is one of the most recognisable urban waterfronts in the country.
