Shaka's Rock is a beachside town situated along the North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
Shaka's Rock is a small residential village 40 km (25 mi) from Durban.
Its name comes from a promontory over which the Zulu chief Shaka is said to have thrown his enemies and to have tested his men by daring them to jump to their deaths.
Shaka's Rock Beach Tidal Pool is protected and well known for snorkelling, with a wide variety of fish, corals and other sealife.
Ocean Drive runs between Salt Rock and Ballito and serves as the main coastal road of Shaka’s Rock while Shaka’s Rock Road runs inland from Ocean Drive towards Shaka’s Head.
