Umhlanga Coastline

Fishing

The Durban and Umhlanga coastline has some of the richest waters in the world for deep sea fishing, shore or pier fishing. Sharks, blacktail, barracuda and shad are just some of the types of salt-water fish to pit yourself against. For the freshwater fisherman, venturing a bit further inland offers countless opportunities for amazing catches.

Carp, Barbel and Tilapia are amongst some of these and even spear fishing is on offer for those wanting a somewhat different fishing experience.

Fishing is a protected activity and permits are required for both inland and sea fishing. These can be obtained from local municipal offices.
