Durban's tourism sector shows impressive growth
Independent on Saturday
|August 23, 2025
ETHEKWINI Municipality is celebrating a revival in the tourism sector, revealing significant growth in international and domestic visitor numbers from January to May this year.
During a two-day strategic planning workshop hosted by the eThekwini Presidential Working Group at the Elangeni Hotel, South African Tourism presented data that illustrates the strong recovery for the region.
The workshop serves as a platform for strategising approaches to bolster this vital sector.
International tourism to Durban has surged dramatically, with over 186000 additional arrivals compared to the same period last year.
This influx has led to a combined local spend exceeding R750 million, propelled largely by strong card transactions and cash withdrawals.
