Considered one of the premier coastal residential estates in South Africa, the spectacular Simbithi Eco Estate affords a unique and secure high quality living environment that preserves and enhances the existing natural ecosystem of the area.
About the area
The Dolphin Coast is a beautiful playground of warm waters, incredible waves, excellent fishing spots and glorious beaches which is home to coastal holiday towns like Ballito, Salt Rock, Umdloti and Zinkwazi.
Ballito is the Pearl of the Dolphin Coast, having originated as far back as 1953, whose name was gleaned from a magazine advertisement meaning Little Ball, which became a town board in 1966. Ballito reached borough status in 1986 and is well known for its superb and safe beaches.
Living in Ballito is considered pure heaven on earth - an old fashioned neighbourhood and small town where everyone knows everyone. The area has a homely feeling and it attracts people from all over with its rustic lifestyle in the lush green surrounds and its world-class estates on offer, such as Zimbali Coastal Resort and Simbithi Eco-Estate.
While life in Ballito is laid-back, its night life doesn’t disappoint, with plenty of evening activities to indulge in - like; Lucky Shakers bar for a night of dancing, Hops pub, Crush nightclub, CoCo Del Mare, the East Oasis cocktail lounge and various exotic cuisine venues to choose from, along with the night market at the Litchi Orchard.
And during the day, residents take full advantage of the surf-based activities on offer, with fishing, cycling, surfing, paddle- boarding and swimming being popular activities, and a 2,5km promenade a boon for joggers and walkers.
While Ballito’s promenade and beach are great for those who enjoy an active lifestyle, it also has a great selection of restaurants and coffee shops scattered along the promenade to cater for those who love good food and relaxation.
For those who love a little retail therapy, there are a number of shopping centres in the area to meet all of your retail needs. The newest mall to launch in the vibrant heart of the Dolphin Coast is the Ballito Junction Regional Mall which opened its doors in March 2017. The mall exemplifies modern elegance and style and offers convenience combined with a world-class shopping experience.
Alternative malls include the Ballito Lifestyle Centre which provides many great stores conveniently situated central to the neighbourhood and the Quarter Boutique Shopping Centre which offers an eclectic mix of retail shops, exclusive art and décor opportunities, professional business services, health and beauty outlets and upmarket café restaurants.
The town is also home to many educational institutions and private schools, including Ashton College and Trinity House, with Crawford North Coast in neighbouring Westbrook Beach and, at Mount Richmore, Curro School.
