MSC Cruises: 3 nights from Durban with MSC Musica (Nov 22, 2024)

Portuguese Island

Durban

Stretching along a strip of yellow-blue sand, Durban is the third most populous city in South Africa. The waterfront, with its expanse of hotels, skyscrapers and bars, remains a symbol of the city, and the city center, with some grand colonial buildings and charming Art Deco architecture, perfectly represent the typical African style. The city is famous for being a place with the largest concentration of people of Indian descent in the country.

For this reason, Durban also boasts sights, sounds and smells typical of the subcontinent. Even though the beach is always the favorite spot, many visitors visit the suburbs, chock-full of housing, shopping malls, funky bars and elegant restaurants and they describe these areas as beautiful and not to be missed.
