Accommodation near Ushaka Marine World - 11
uShaka Marine World is one of Durban’s most popular tourist attractions. You can find it on the upmarket stretch of beachfront known as the Golden Mile, and when you do, you won’t be disappointed.
uShaka is essentially an outdoor entertainment complex, and an impressive one at that. It lays claim to a number of grand titles such as the largest jungle gym in Africa, the highest water slide in Africa and the largest aquarium in the Southern Hemisphere. It is also home to the important South African Association for Marine Biology and its world famous Oceanographic Research Institute. These two bodies take care of uShaka’s conservation concerns while the rest of the complex is devoted to adrenaline, wonder and straight-up fun.
Sea World is a section of the complex devoted to underwater interactions. The aquarium is found here as are the show pools where you can witness interactive dolphin and seal shows as well as penguin presentations. If you are interested in diving with sharks, walking on the ‘sea bed’, snorkelling or meeting a dolphin, this is the place to do it.
Wet ‘n Wild is the home of the fresh water rides and pools, where you can choose from a gentle tunnel tube ride which meanders throughout the Sea World enclosure, to the Drop Zone, a plunging free-fall slide which is guaranteed to get the adrenaline pumping. There is a lot to do in-between too, including child-friendly options.
Alongside Sea World is the uShaka Kids World, a haven of sand-pits, jungle gyms, craft activities and shows. There are child minders on duty and a café not far so that parents can chill out knowing their kids are safe and happy.
The last two complements of uShaka Marine World are the uShaka Beach which offers the choice between sand and grass, and the Village Walk, a unique outdoor shopping area with everything from surf shops and curio stores to outdoor adventure outlets and smoothie joints.
