Romantic places to visit this Valentine's Day in KZN

After the Christmas and back-to-school rush, many couples look forward to Valentine's Day for a romantic trip or simply a quiet romantic day to themselves. With Valentine's Day approaching, it's easy to come up with creative ways to reconnect and spend quality time with your significant other when you reside in a beautiful region like KwaZulu-Natal.

Perhaps you're heading to a nice restaurant or taking a weekend away for Valentine's Day, but if you haven't made arrangements yet, here are a few suggestions for what you can do on February 14:

  • A romantic couple's picnic

If you prefer to stick to the basics, KZN provides several enticing picnic locations for you and your sweetheart to rekindle your love while enjoying a breathtaking vista. Durban Botanical Gardens, Paradise Valley Nature Reserve, and Springside Nature Reserve are just a few of the surrounding attractions.

If you want to make a day of it, Tala Private Game Reserve, which is only 18 minutes from Camperdown, is a great place for a romantic day out. There are picnic areas and braai amenities available, as well as the opportunity to watch a variety of animals. Keep a lookout for hippos, buffalos, giraffes, wildebeests, warthogs, different bucks, and other animals.

If you're looking for some adventure, The Shongweni Dam and Nature Reserve is the place to be. You and your partner can go on game drives, rock climbing, abseiling, mountain bike rides, or guided canoe trips. After the adrenaline thrill, you can relax and enjoy the stunning natural surroundings with a wonderful picnic.

  • A sunset cruise to spoil the love of your life

One of the most romantic things to do with your beloved is to sail through Durban's harbour as the sun sets. As the sky changes into a spectacular blaze of colour, you and your partner can enjoy sipping chilled wine and snacking on snack platters.

  • Explore Giant's Castle in the Drakensberg

If you want to have a lovely and tranquil retreat with your partner, consider a stay-cation to the Giant's Castle Nature Reserve, which is located in the Ukhahlamba Drakensberg Park's Central Berg region. Giant's Castle camp is positioned on a grassy plateau among steep valleys running down from the face of the High Drakensberg, providing you and your companion with breathtaking views. This location is great for a couple that enjoys hiking and mountain climbing. You may also go on a game drive, go fishing, or go on a self-guided walk to get some much-needed nature time.

  • Fly up in the sky in a hot air balloon

Give your beloved the excitement and serene tranquillity of hot air ballooning on the edge of the Drakensberg mountains if you want to go the extra mile. The hot air balloon will take off from a location in or near the Kamberg Valley, within sight of Giants Castle.

  • Wind your way along the Durban Point Waterfront canals

Surprise your better half with a romantic ride on a Zulumoon gondola that will make you feel like you are at the canals of Venice in Italy. This is the ultimate for those looking to spice up their Valentine's Day. You and your sweetie may ride exquisite gondolas through the canals, inhaling in the fragrant air and gazing up at the magnificent African sky. Each gondola is adorned with African design and fascinating cultural touch.
