Digital Media Update
Visit KZN South Coast Website
We have successfully maintained the KZN South Coast tourism website with 100% uptime this quarter, with ongoing seamless functionality, booking options and consistently appealing features. This has ensured that our platform remains reliable, accessible and aligned with best practices in digital tourism marketing, while continuing to position the KZN South Coast as a premier tourism destination.
In addition, we introduced new features that allow us to extend coverage of tourism initiatives monthly. A key development has been the launch of the “Thought Leader Article”, authored by our CEO, Dr Vusumuzi Sibiya. Through this platform, we provide authoritative insights and highlight the ongoing efforts shaping the region’s tourism sector. Combined with regular updates across accommodation, dining, our online events calendar and attractions, the articles strengthen our ability to deliver fresh, high-value content that engages both visitors and stakeholders.
