Mundo Vida

The unspoiled, tropical north coast of KwaZulu-Natal has a number of beach resorts favoured by holidaymakers and residents alike. Within easy reach of Durban and Umhlanga Rocks, there are many popular destinations for day-trippers keen to have a break from city life, to enjoy a swim on one of the golden beaches of the warm Indian Ocean, or just to do something different. One of these destinations is the charming coastal village of Umdloti, situated at the mouth of the Mdloti River, and a perfect spot to relax, have a swim or enjoy the whale and dolphin spotting in season. After all that fresh sea air has worked up a hunger, what better place to go than the newly opened Mundo Vida restaurant.
