Marine and Beaches:

The beautiful sandy beaches of Durban and Umhlanga are guaranteed to delight beach-lovers and sun-worshipers alike.

The Sharks Board offers a day out with a difference.
There are regular one-hour tours which include a peek into the enormous freezer where the shark carcasses are stored, a shark dissection, and a fascinating audiovisual presentation. There is also an interesting curio shop offering sharkskin leather goods. 

uShaka Marine World in Durban is a themed marine park in Durban, offering a world of ocean activities, rides, oceanarium, amusement park, displays, shopping, and beach activities and is a fantastic place to spend a day.

Arts, Culture and Theatre:

Enjoy a day-trip along the new 1000 Hills Experience Route "features Zulu Cultural villages and stunning mountain vistas as the backdrop to a wealth of creative talent. This fascinating tourist experience, which follows the famous Comrades Marathon Route, is all about rolling hills, valleys, gorges, forests, rivers and scenic dams."

Accessible theatres from the B&B include the Playhouse, the Elizabeth Sneddon and Bat theatres in Durban, The Barnyard at Gateway and closer to home the Heritage Supper Theatre at the Heritage Market.

Bird Watching and Game Viewing:

Eagles View B&B is perched above Krantzkloof Nature Reserve which offers scenic walks and has a pleasant picnic site. Get more details on birding in the reserve. 

To view larger game pay a visit to nearby Tala Private Game Reserve or take a trip down the South Coast to Hluhluwe Game Reserve.

Pubs and Restaurants:

Our local pub is the The Stokers Arms, the old Kloof Station where you can enjoy a drink in the pub, outdoors or even in the adjacent railway carriages!   The Umgeni Steam Railway runs steam trains from Kloof Station (Stokers Arms) to and from Inchanga Station, on the last and first Sunday of each month. This is know locally as the Inchanga Choo Choo and visitors to the B&B might hear the steam whistles on Sundays when the trains are running.

When it comes to food the local area has a huge variety on offer from take-away burgers and chips to fine dining.  Your hosts Laureen and Frank have experience of most local eateries and will be only too pleased to recommend some of their favourites!
