On arrival: The driver waits in the public arrivals area of the terminal building at King Shaka (domestic or international arrivals, depending on your flight), after baggage reclaim and, on international flights, customs, holding a sign with your name.

UShaka Marine World is a marine theme park with an aquarium built around a replica shipwreck, a water park and a beach, at the southern end of Durban's beachfront on the Point peninsula next to the harbour entrance. From the airport the route follows the N2 south, the M41 and the M4 Leo Boyd and Ruth First highways along the coast into the city, then runs down Mahatma Gandhi Road to the Point. The distance is about 35 km, around 30 to 40 minutes.
The Point area combines uShaka, the Point Waterfront apartments and canal promenade, and the harbour edge with the KwaZulu Cruise Terminal, about 500 m away, where cruise ships berth. North of uShaka the Golden Mile promenade runs along South Beach and North Beach, with hotels facing the sea and the Moses Mabhida Stadium at its northern end about 4 km away. The city centre and City Hall are about 2 km to the north-west.
