Located in the city of Durban, “the warmest place to be” during any season, the marine theme park gives fun in the sun a whole new meaning. From “swimming” with the sharks under the watchful eye of trained scuba diving instructors to activities for children, there is something for the whole family.

Fancy taking an 18-metre drop down the highest slide in the southern hemisphere? What about braving the giant jaws of the impressive Mamba Tunnel ride? If you answered yes, then it’s time to get wet and wild. uShaka’s Wet ‘n Wild is the perfect place to embrace your inner thrill-seeker, and with plenty of slides and water rides to choose from you are sure to enjoy hours of fun.

Get up close and personal with some of the most beautiful marine life known to mankind. Home to the largest aquarium in Africa, Sea World complex brings the ocean right to you. Dance along with Gambit, Khethiwe, Frodo, Kwezi at a world class dolphin show or put your happy feet to work at Seal Stadium. Shark lovers get the opportunity to meet one of the ocean’s most majestic creatures face-to-face during an Xpanda Shark Dive.   

There’s fun and adventure at Kids World for little ones aged two to 12. With Africa’s biggest jungle gym, and a giant sandpit to keep them busy, you will get nothing but smiles from your little one all day. Your little ones can build a colossal sandcastle at Crabby Beach, 20-metre-long pit filled with soft sand, or strike up a conversation with a parrot or two, while you enjoy a relaxing cuppa at Duzi River Café.

Dangerous Creatures is home to the world’s most venomous snake! Stare down a black throated monitor, or take a selfie with an anaconda. Thankfully, this life-sized giant is not real, but will look really good in pictures!
