At the recent 2022 Africa Travel Indaba, the city of Durban announced that a Ferris called the Durban Eye, a forthcoming tourism attraction will be launched in the city.
The Durban Eye will change Durban’s skyline; it will be built along the beachfront promenade and is expected to launch in February 2023, ahead of the Easter holidays. It will offer tourists a spectacular 360° panoramic view of the city.
The development which will be situated at the southern end of the beach front, bordering the harbour entrance intrigued many Indaba delegates. Nkosenhle Madlala, chairperson of the city’s Governance and Human Capital Committee, represented the mayor Mxolisi Kaunda at the Indaba.
“Durban’s story is one of resilience against all odds. We hosted key target markets to explore the city’s newest tourism products offerings in various regions. Many were impressed and want to come back and fully discover the eThekwini,” said Madlala.
