Durban central itself is not very interesting and we were advised to avoid it but there is so much to do. Great beaches. Safari 3 hours away. Shark cage diving 30 mins away. Loads of great restaurants and lovely vibe. Florida Road worth a visit

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

I didn't feel safe walking around Durban by myself. Butcher Bros on Florida Road is a fantastic restaurant, which I'd highly recommend. Victoria Market is ideal for picking up keepsakes or nik nak souvenirs.
