It's an Adventure 
uShaka Marine World incorporates a world-class sea water aquarium, a water slides amusement park, the re-creation of a 1940s cargo ship wreck, which boasts the a la carte Cargo Hold Restaurant as well as the family buffet Upper Deck Restaurant. The décor is richly infused with indigenous African imagery and maritime images of the Port of Durban. uShaka has established itself as a prime day-visit destination and a pleasant addition to Durban's night scene.
The design of the park incorporates strong local themes, bringing a multicultural Durban flavour to the park. The park focuses on family entertainment in terms of fun, excitement, friendliness, imagery, activities, education and unique experiences, grouped into four distinct areas.
