So, make sure you have a change of clothes with you when you want to go dining at C-Bali at St. Mikes Beach, Pavillion at Uvongo Beach or perhaps The Waffle House or Blue Lagoon in Ramsgate, to name only a few!
Raincoat & Umbrella: Although our little paradise, the south coast of KZN does have its odd days, with weather that can sometimes be a bit unpredictable, it is always a great idea to have your raincoats and umbrellas packed in just in case while you enjoy your exploration.
