KwaZulu-Natal’s (KZN) South Coast is a haven for beach lovers, and Shore Breakers Chalets puts you right in the heart of the action. But beyond the year-round sunshine and sparkling shores, there’s a natural phenomenon that draws visitors from across the globe – the Sardine Run!

Nature’s Greatest Show on Earth

The Sardine Run is an annual migration of millions of sardines along the eastern South African coast. This incredible event takes place between May and July, with sardines forming massive shoals, attracting a feeding frenzy of marine predators like dolphins, sharks, and whales. Witnessing this spectacle is a truly unforgettable experience, and Shore Breakers Chalets is the perfect base camp for your South Coast adventure.

Imagine stepping out your chalet at Shore Breakers and spotting humpback whales breaching in the distance, their acrobatic displays fueled by the abundance of sardines. With our beachfront location at Shelly Beach, you might even be lucky enough to see dolphins and sharks herding the sardine shoals from your balcony!
