The KwaZulu-Natal Department of Sport and Recreation, together with both the Mandeni and KwaDukuza Municipalities, will again host the festive season Beach festivals in these north coast towns.
These neighbouring towns form part of the Ilembe District. The aim of these festivals is to encourage members of the communities to make full use of these amenities including engaging in all the fun by participating in the various beach games.
The programme was first piloted at the once popular Umgababa Beach, south of Durban, since 2006 where it is now the main feature of their festive calendar. The north coast festivals, now in their third year, draw scores of beach patrons each year. Those attending this year will be treated to a variety of activities comprising the following:
- Beach sports: Volleyball, netball, touch rugby, soccer;
- Fishing competition;
- Water safety and sea rescue demos;
- Indigenous games;
- Tug-of-war;
- Beauty competitions;
- Kiddies shows;
- Love Life lifestyle new centre;
- Top artists: Bullistic, Lvovo, Big NUZ and Malin;
- DJs: Cyndo, Tira, Twitty, Oros, Oskido as well as local acts.
The events will take place as follows:
- Mandeni Beach Festival: Tugela Mouth Beach: 17 to 18 December 2011;
- KwaDukuza Beach Festival: Blythedale Beach: 26 to 27 December 2011.
Both events will begin at 10h00 in the morning till 18h00 in the evening.
