Situated strategically on the south eastern tip of Africa, Durban is Africa's premier port, serving a host of commercial and non commercial traffic. It is the gateway to South Africa's commerce and also feeds traffic to many landlocked countries.

Durban is a regular port of call for traffic between east and west and offers a host of services such as repair yards, dry docks, bunkering and provisioning.

Johannesburg International airport, plays host to most of the international airlines and allows for easy access to Durban for crew transfers.

Durban's tropical climate sets the scene for a holiday atmosphere in a vibrant city with an estimated population of two million and is a premier holiday destination for both local and international holiday makers.

A true mix of cultures, including African, Indian, Muslim and European make for the rich diversity, with first class hotels, infrastructure and beaches and a short distance to some of the best game viewing private parks and other spectacular tourist attractions in the country. In addition, South Africa and particularly Durban, is close to the Indian Ocean Islands and is a new and exciting destination for the superyachts, seeking both fun and essential services. Del Shipping and Trading act as ships and superyacht agents in all the major ports of South Africa, with our head office based in Durban. Our experienced personnel offer a dedicated and professional 24 hour service to our clients together with an understanding of their needs and we welcome the superyachts to this new destination!
