KZN North Coast. This coastal paradise stretches from Durban northwards to the mighty Thukela River. Pristine beaches and azure bays nestle between rolling fields of green sugar cane and beautiful indigenous forests of raffia palms. This region received a major shot in the golfing arm with the development of Zimbali Club which has developed scenically beautiful and challenging courses. Zimbali offers one of the toughest tests of golf in the region.

Length of course : 5977 m. Par : 72. Greens : Country Club. Fairways : Kikuyu.

Day 2 : Enjoy a full English breakfast before being collected by your driver and escourted to Zimbali Lodge for a challenging round of golf. Designer of Zimbali’s golf course, Tom Weiskopf described its setting as “dramatic & beautiful”. The principle that golf is more exciting played downhill is well applied at this course, with most tees positioned high on the sides of hills or dunes with fairways flowing through a valley to a green cut at the bottom of the next hill.

Day 3 : After breakfast at the lodge today you will tee off at Mount Edgecombe Country Estate but today you will play course 2.

 

KZN South Coast. This idyllic coastline stretches from the Umkomaas River southwards as far as Port Edward. Rolling hills, bays, beaches, lagoons and picturesque seaside villages characterize this unspoilt region. Also dubbed as the golf coast, the South Coast of KwaZulu Natal offers many challenging and attractive courses.

Day 4 : After an early breakfast your driver will collect you from the lodge and transfer you to Selbourne Park Country Club. Consistently rated amongst South Africa’s top courses, Selbourne is the site of an old dairy farm more recently transformed into a luxurious golf estate full of indigenous trees make this a spectacular golfing experience. Course length : 6040 m. Par 72

Greens: Paspalum. Fairways: Cynoden.

 

Greater Durban Area. The largest city in the Kingdom of the Zulu and an important economic hub built around the busiest port in the Southern hemisphere. A warm sub-tropical climate with plenty of sunshine all year round and an abundance of golden beaches make Durban an ideal holiday destination. The greater Durban area enjoys the lions share of KwaZulu Natal’s golf courses.

Day 5 : Durban Country Club. The most prized course in the Kingdom if not the entire South Africa. Amongst the many challenging holes on the course, the most famous and arguably the most difficult is the Par 5 third. Played from an elevated tee to a narrowing fairway, this hole is certainly not for the faint hearted and has earned itself a position as one of the top 100 holes in the world.

 

Day 6 : Today you say farewell to the Kingdom of the Zulu. Your driver will transfer you to Durban International for your flight back home. Bon Voyage!! Until next year.
