Umhlanga Rocks Grannys Pool

Granny's Pool is a surf boat-launch site located along the Umhlanga Rocks promenade, in front of the Pearls Shopping Centre, and serves as the registered launch site for the Umhlanga Ski-Boat Club.

It provides access to fishing grounds along the KwaZulu-Natal coast and is also used by the Natal Sharks Board to service the shark nets beyond the backline.

The site owes its name and origins to a natural gulley formed between two rocky outcrops, which originally created a sheltered, calmer patch of water popular with families and older bathers.

While the rock pools surrounding the area remain attractive to children, the site is an active boat launch and is not designated as an official swimming area.
