The history of the town Ballito, which was initially part of a sugar cane farm, owned by Basil Townsend, dates back to 1953, when a group of businessmen began identifying land to develop a township in the Compensation Beach area. The town was established in 1954 as a private township, by Glen Anil Development Corporation/Investments.

Ballito was proclaimed a town in 1954 and reached borough status in 1986. Ballito translated from Italian means “little ball”, the town’s name having been borrowed from a glossy advertisement for hosiery made by Ballito Hosiery of St. Albans, England.

For many years Ballito was the best kept secret of the KZN Coast and has been the perennial playground of the young and young at heart.

Unsurprisingly, since the secret got out Ballito has attracted an increasing number of tourists as well as permanent residents, and the town and surrounding areas have recently experienced a period of exceptional economic growth, and there is no doubt that  it is now one of the top resort towns in the country.

Enjoy a swim or surfing.
