Durban - You can’t go to Durban and not go to uShaka Marine World – especially if you’ve got kids.
With plenty of things to do – ranging from Sea World to Dangerous Creatures – you can spend the whole day there and not get bored.
There are also plenty of restaurants in which to dine and shops to browse if you get peckish or tired of the water.
Sea World is billed as the largest aquarium in the southern hemisphere, and features dolphin and seal shows, penguin presentations and animal feeds.
The Wet ’n Wild water park claims the highest water slide in the southern hemisphere and is a fresh-water montage of pools and slides.
Dangerous Creatures features all manner of interesting animals – from a safe distance, of course.
Kids World is a place where younger children (two to 12) can frolic and enjoy themselves in safety.
In addition, there are a number of special offerings – from the shark cage to the ocean walk – which offer guests an up-close and personal experience with the denizens of the deep.
Combo tickets for Sea World and Wet ’n Wild cost R185 for adults, R139 for children from three to 12 and R139 for pensioners.
The special adventures range from R160 for the shark cage experience, to R120 for the ocean walk and R100 for the ray feeding experience.
uShaka Marine World also has its own beach to complete the all-day family experience. - Saturday Star
