Durban's Golden Mile or just ‘The Mile’ as it’s affectionately called, is a section of beachfront that stretches for roughly six kilometres along the coast, starting from the Suncoast Casino and entertainment complex in the north and ending at South Beach, where uShaka Marine World is situated. The beaches lying along The Mile are among Durban’s finest, attracting scores of sun-bathers, swimmers and surfers, while the restaurants, bars, clubs and cafes along the promenade provide a humming social scene.
