Vehicles and driving in Ballito

Ballito is the centre of the Dolphin Coast, a fast-growing area of residential estates, holiday homes and shopping centres just off the N2 north of Durban. Sea air and high humidity mean battery terminals and connectors corrode quickly, and vehicles parked near the beach are particularly vulnerable. Many homes are holiday properties, so cars often stand unused for weeks and come back to life with flat or damaged batteries. Families towing boats and caravans to the coast need trailer wiring and charging repairs, while the surrounding sugar cane farms around Shakaskraal and Tongaat keep tractors and farm bakkies busy throughout the year.
