Legends and ghosts of the past The eastern shipping trade routes off our KwaZulu-Natal coastline have tempted many men to brave the jagged rocks, dangerous currents and treacherous seas in search of fame and fortune. They were intrepid explorers, foolhardy sea dogs, early pioneers and entrepreneurs. Whether successful or lured to an early watery grave, they have become part of Durban’s fascinating nautical history - a tantalising mix of truth, mystery, and legend … even ghost stories. You will find this rich tapestry of history reflected in uShaka MARINE WORLD’s exceptional centrepiece – on the outside a wreck of a 1920s steamer snared on rocks in a lagoon; and inside, a fascinating underwater world of wrecks and shark-infested waters that bring these seafaring stories to life. |
