Kwazulu-Natal is home to the breath-taking St Lucia Estuary (a World Heritage Site) as well as the Kosi Bay lakes (indeed, along the coastline of this province you'll find the country's best-protected indigenous coastal forests).
There are many game reserves, such as Mkuzi & Pinda.
South of the Swaziland border (the northern part of Kwazulu-Natal) is African savanna (and several game parks which are home to the province's rich wildlife).
The largest common wild fig tree (Ficus burkei) is found in Eden Park, Umtentweni.
The mainstay of the agriculture of the province is the sugar-cane plantations along the Indian Ocean coastal belt. Large quantities of subtropical fruit (e.g. oranges, bananas, mangoes) are produced along the coastal belt. As you move inland, he farmers concentrate more on vegetable, dairy and stock farming. Forestry is another major source of income (in the areas around Vryheid, Eshowe, Richmond, Harding and Ngome). Ngome is also home to several tea plantations.
