Mtunzini
General Information
The Zulu word "emthunzini" means "a place in the shade" but in the history of this beautiful small coastal town it refers specifically to the place under the milkwood trees near the Umlalazi River where the White Zulu chief John Dunn, would meet with the tribal elders of the area.
Visiting this Zululand and KwaZulu-Natal town today gives exactly that feeling - a place in the shade.Blessed with a sub-tropical climate (humid summers and mild winters) and a high annual rainfall, Mtunzini - or The Village, as the locals often refer to it - boasts a clean, safe, peaceful and abundant environment with a stunning outlook over the Umlalazi Nature Reserve and the sea.
The entire town was declared a Conservancy in 1995 and is a fisherman’s paradise. With about 40km of beach, birding and bush trails makes Mtunzini a nature’s lovers haven in Zululand.
