Uniquely different, Palm Beach boasts its own Nature Reserve, estuary and natural tidal pool. The calm waters of the estuary are ideal for (beginner) wind-surfing while the reserve offers self-guided walking trails through its riverine forest, a bird-watcher's paradise. South of the mouth of the estuary is reputed to be one of the best wind-surfing spots along the coast

Named after the feathery (protected) i'lala ('Sleeping' palm - used in the making of bed mats & also known as vegetable ivory because of its rock hard 'fruit') found on the dunes, Palm Beach has a diversity of log homes, fishermen's cottages and luxury villas which add to its charm while a superette, pub and restaurant are ideal meeting places for holiday makers and locals alike
The 66 hectare Mpenjati ('Warring Buffalo') Nature Reserve straddles the Mpenjati River between Palm Beach & Trafalgar Beach. Made up of a system of interlinking wetlands, grasslands and majestic dune forests, the (1.8km long) Yengele trail on the North bank climbs and winds through one of the largest dune forests on the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast. It is habitat to forest antelope, porcupine, otter and a host of bird species, including the majestic Fish Eagle. The slightly shorter Ipithi ('Duiker') trail on the South bank is home to bushbuck, blue and (the rare) grey duiker, the magnificent but shy (nocturnal) genet cat and also a prolific cross-section of bird life.
