Chakas Rock

Chakas Rock is situated a mere 5 kilometres north of Ballito on KwaZulu Natal’s Dolphin Coast. A small residential suburb, there is also plenty of holiday accommodation available here. Residents and holidaymakers can take full advantage of the endless stretch of sandy beach and a popular tidal pool enclosed by picturesque rocky cliffs. The beach at Shaka’s Rock is a favourite launch point for ski boat enthusiasts and those lapping up the sun are often privy to spectacular displays as daredevil wave riders launch their boats into the roaring surf.

When it comes to a sedentary and peaceful life by the sea, there really is no better place than Chaka’s Rock. Perfect for the family, there are plenty of seaside activities to keep you busy, such as finding shells along the beach, watching dolphins play in the water just off the shore or splashing around in the warm, placid waters of the tidal pool. The more adventurous at heart can take a trip out to deeper water and do some fishing or take advantage of the excellent golfing facilities in and around the area.

Anyone interested in what the surrounding area has to offer, Chaka’s Rock is not far from the Sibaya Casino or the Gateway Shopping Centre, which happens to be the largest of its kind in the entire southern hemisphere. There are also a number of blue flag beaches along the North Coast that offer plenty of variety when it comes to entertainment. Perhaps the best selling point about Shaka’s Rock is the quaint village atmosphere that seems to put everyone immediately at ease. If you are interested in buying coastal property in a less commercialized area then Chaka’s Rock could be just the place for you.
