The Ballito #SaveSA demonstration has come to an end.
Protesters marched from La Montagne down Compensation Beach Road, then gathered on the grass next to Eat Local at the Belvista Centre.
Demonstration organiser Nic Jordan said they were originally expecting only a few hundred people and were blown away when nearly 4000 joined them to voice their dissatisfaction with President Jacob Zuma.
Throughout the march the atmosphere was positive, with songs breaking out and cheers of “Zuma must go!” echoing through the streets.
Jordan addressed the crowd once they had reached their destination, saying that state capture must end and Zuma must give South Africa back to the people.
After a few rounds of song and cheering, the crowd dispersed peacefully.
Watch as the #SaveSA demonstrators gather in downtown Ballito and are addressed by the organisers:
