The beautiful village of Zinkwazi is located on the North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal, and is part of the Dolphin Coast. It is characterized by lush, sub-tropical vegetation, warm Indian Ocean waters, mild Winters and a tranquil way of life.
Zinkwazi is a very popular holiday village, with visitors either renting holiday homes, or investing in their own piece of paradise and visiting as often as possible.
A nature lover's delight, you can often hear the fish eagles cry, or see them soaring above the lagoon. Zinkwazi is located within a protected conservancy and thus boasts a vast amount of bird species, wildlife and indigenous plants. There are often sightings of dolphins playing in the bay, mongoose, duiker, bushbuck, owls, trumpeter hornbills, crowned eagles, palm-nut vultures and the ever adorable bush babies. From July until early October we enjoy "whale season" with wonderful sightings of whales breaching or interacting with their new-born calves.
To those that reside here, or visit regularly, Zinkwazi is an incredibly special place that holds enormous sentimental value to them.
We encourage you to visit and make unforgettable memories for yourself!
