An easy Ballito Beaches Virtual that will take you to a magnificent spot on the Kwa-Zulu Natal North Coast.
Heading north from Ballito along the coastal road is a leisurely drive which will give the traveller some splendid sea views.

At Thompson's Bay you will find Charlie's Pool, an olympic-size tidal pool which was built by one of the area's early settlers Charles de Charmoy. There are also secluded beaches, rocky coves and shallow paddling pools which will provide endless hours of fun.

Lifeguards keep a watchful eye on bathers and ensure it is safe to swim. South of Thompson's Bay is the Hole in the Wall - looks like a natural rock formation caused by on-going erosion from the sea. But actually man made by locals years ago.

A marine trail starts from this point and heads north towards High Rock very popular with the fisherman. A favourite fishing spot and many a great catch have been landed from these High rocks, much to the delight of the fisherman and spectators watching.

It is from these rocks that King Shaka's warriors were supposedly called upon to leap from the rock into the surging waves below to test their courage.
