There is plenty to see and do at this
theme park situated in the Point Waterfront of Durban, South Africa.
Here are 5 highlights to add to your
bucket list:
Wet
n’ Wild
The theme park has a great adventure park
featuring many water slides, a variety of pools and of course the Lazy River
where you can sail along at your own pace. There are also some extreme slides
for the thrill seekers out there.

Not many people know this but situated next to the theme park is the Village Walk. uShaka Marine World has its very own outside mall. So if you are in the mood for some retail therapy you can experience one of the many boutique shops in the Village Walk. No matter what you need you can find anything from clothing to food to gourmet coffee and even banking right there. Many of these shops rely on tourists and locals and during these tough times it is important to support local shops.
The
Dolphin Show
The theme park also has its very own
Dolphin Show which is held at different times during the day. You can also
experience the shows online by visiting the uShaka Marine World website.
The
New Promenade Extension

Ethekwini Municipality has just recently extended the promenade further along from uShaka Pier. So grab a coffee at one of the nearby restaurants and take a leisurely stroll. The promenade leads right up to the harbour entrance where you can experience some breath-taking views of Durban and the ships that enter and exit the entrance.
It’s important to check their website to
find out their latest updates on opening and closing times based on the latest
Covid-19 lockdown regulations. Please remember that all Covid-19 regulations
will be in place at the park.
