Margate Property | South Coast

Margate has long been known as one of the most popular holiday destinations in South Africa, let alone KwaZulu Natal.  The area has long stretches of golden beach and shorelines lined by lush sub-tropical vegetation.  What some of you might not know is that this is prime banana country, as well as having excellent fishing grounds and the rocks along the coast offer plenty of mussels.

The centre of the South Coast’s nightlife, Margate has plenty of entertainment centres to satisfy the taste of any walk of life, from discos to the more sedate pubs.  It is also home to a vast selection of hotels and holiday accommodation to cater for the tourist and local holiday market.  In high season, it’s not unusual to find parties happening on the beach and there is always plenty of fun to be had during the day.

The South Coast is renowned for its brilliant bird life, with over 380 species recorded here.  Interestingly enough, this comprises a third of the total species recorded in all of southern Africa.  The forest birds in Margate are particularly colourful and there are a number of bird watching tours available to residents and visitors in the area.  Nature buffs will be pleased to know that there are a variety of nature reserves in the surrounding area, which offer spectacular views and a myriad of animals.  So if it’s coastal property that you are interested in then Margate offers pretty much everything you could ever wish for.
