The History behind Durban Harbour
Logistics services, Durban - The History & where we fit in
KZN’s Durban harbour dates back to 1824 when the first 1820 Settlers made a landing with the intention of setting up a trading post. The Bay of Natal was one of the few natural harbours available along the east coast of Southern Africa.
Vasco da Gama named it the land ‘Natal’ as a mark of respect for the Nativity.
Today it is regarded as one of the largest and the busiest port of Africa.
