3About Umkomaas
Umkomaas, on the KZN south coast about 40km from Durban, sits right at the Mkomazi River mouth. Take the N2 down from Durban, or hop onto the old R102 coastal road for quick trips to Scottburgh, Park Rynie and Illovo Beach. Visitors from further afield, like the Free State or Mpumalanga, usually come via the N3 to the N2. Chargers for your EV are easiest to find around Durban and Amanzimtoti before the road gets quieter. Divers know Umkomaas for Aliwal Shoal and its ragged-tooth sharks, while the town itself runs on one of the biggest sugar mills in the southern hemisphere.
