Westbrook

Westbrook

Westbrook is a quiet beach village on the Dolphin Coast, between Umdloti and Ballito, about 10 km south of Ballito and roughly 15 minutes from King Shaka International Airport. Long stretches of sand, fewer crowds and easy access to everything on the coast make it a favourite with people who want a peaceful beach holiday without being far from town.

The beach

Westbrook's beach is wide, sandy and stretches for kilometres, so there's room to spread out even in season. Early mornings are for long walks along the shore, and dolphins are often seen just behind the waves. In winter, keep an eye out for whales passing up the coast.

Where to stay

Both our Westbrook homes are beachfront apartments on North Beach Road, with nothing between you and the sea:

  • 601 Bali Hai: high up, with a sweeping ocean view that has to be seen to be believed, and a pool in the complex.
  • Salt & Sea at 41 Blue Largo: beachfront, with the ocean right in front of you.

Want more restaurants and shops on your doorstep? We have nine homes in Ballito, about 10 minutes north.
