Stanger Attractions

Near two other quiet resorts, Sheffield Beach and Blythdale Beach is Stanger (pop. 26,000), founded in 1873 on the site of Shaka's last royal kraal, Kwadukuza ("Place of the Missing One"). A monument in a small garden marks the spot where the great Zulu ruler was murdered in 1828. Annually on September 22nd, a day of great significance to the Zulus, they meet here to honor Shaka.

Stanger is now a busy commercial and administrative center, mainly inhabited by Indians, for one of South Africa's most important sugar-producing areas.
