Sodurba encourages the community of Bluff and surrounding areas to attend the festival.

Sodurba Tourism Association is excited to announce their third annual Welcoming of the Whale festival held at Brighton Beach, Bluff on 29 June.

The free event is open to the public and it is promised to be bigger and better. The whole of Foreshore Drive will be closed to provide a street festival feel.

Sodurba encourages the community of Bluff and surrounding areas to attend the festival. “It is important to attend this festival as we are trying to provide the people of KZN with education on the importance of our Humpback Whale migration past our coastline and why it is so important to protect them. There is nothing like this in KZN, besides it been a free family day out,” said Helga du Preez, chairman of Sodurba.
