Ballito Microlight School

We are based in Ballito on the North Coast of natal only 5 minutes from the golden beaches of Ballito and less than 20 minutes drive north of Durban Surrounded by Rolling Sugar Estates with Millionaires mansions overlooking the warm Indian Ocean, there is no better place to take to the skies and experience the beauty, ease and safety of open cockpit flying in a Microlight aircraft. For as long as people have dreamed, they have been fascinated by the idea of flight. Looking skyward with wounder and amazement. While today's modern technology takes us from point A to point B "True Flying" remains a powerful force, so why not climb aboard our time Machines and return to a time when life was much simpler. Option: 10 Minutes - Inland Flight 20 Minutes - Ballito Coastline 30 Minutes - Ballito Coastline These flight almost guarantees viewing of Dolphin & Game fish with chances of sighting Whale Sharks, Giant Mantas and Turtles, a truly breathtaking experience. Custom flights can be arranged.

Tidal Tao Snorkeling Safaris

Great, safe, fun and amazing experience for the entire family. If you can swim, we can teach you to snorkel. Hundreds of fish, corals and if you're lucky Octopus, Nudibranchs and amazing ocean life. We have been amazed at this wilderness that is right on our doorstep. We have found tidal pools filled with corals and unusual creatures, watched dolphins surfing the back line, been awed by whales breaching offshore and been very chuffed with ourselves for finding secret coves and bays where you're unlikely to see a single soul....And all this in the bustling holiday capital of South Africa! We were surprised and sure you will be too. If you're a visitor to the North Coast and wondering what to do / looking for things to do in Ballito or Salt Rock, then you should consider joining us on one of our Snorkeling Safaris - If you can swim, we can teach you to Snorkel. It's simple, safe and loads of fun for the whole family. Not to be missed.

Comefly! Microlight Flights

We offer incredible flights over the North Coast of KwaZulu Natal. Only 8 minutes north of Ballito, a popular holiday destination for international and domestic travelers, our location is a huge benefit to customers. The airfield is not in King Shaka airspace, nor do we fly into Virginia airspace so the freedom in our flights is unparalleled. A short hop over sugar cane fields gets you to the coast with chances of seeing dolphins, giant manta rays as well as other types of rays, turtles, whale sharks and at certain times of the year, our migrating humpback whales!! Come and experience one of life’s greatest sensations.

We started the night off with a warm and friendly introduction to a whirlwind of Gin’s by a highly experienced Paolo. His attention to detail made this an awesome experience. The prawn bowl is honestly the best seafood I have had in Durban. The atmosphere of the restaurant just made the night incredible. I will come back here any and every time.
