The vast and exciting KZN South Coast hinterland is just waiting to be explored, and South Coast Tourism & Investment Enterprise (SCTIE) is making it more accessible with the establishment of a new rural tourism route. In May, the Emalangeni Experience was officially launched, extending the region’s rural tourism footprint and unique experiences.

“Emalangeni is a scenic rural area near Pennington in Umdoni which is home to beautiful accommodation sites and exquisite views,” commented Deborah Ludick Acting CEO of SCTIE. “By establishing this route, we’re connecting the popular tourist town of Pennington with this rural setting, opening up Emalangeni to a new market. The route gives visitors a more authentic experience of the region through cultural engagements, while supporting entrepreneurs and local job creations.”

Attending the launch were local media representatives who enjoyed a first-hand experience of the route. Starting with a tour of the historic Botha House in Pennington, guests then enjoyed a hike to Umdoni Park Nature Reserve. Putting skills were put to the test at Umdoni Country Club where they replenished with some breakfast before checking out Forest Cottage and a forest walk.

Heading into Emalangeni, the guests stopped at the lovely Ohlwini Garden Lodge and Phiri’s Bed ‘n Breakfast, before stopping for a delicious lunch at Buzy Corner Shisanyama. Other great tourist attractions on the route include Pennington Beach, Selborne Golf Club, Nkomba Nature Reserve, and Basset Breweries and accommodation offerings at Essential Lifestyle Country Lodge – among others.

  1. First Press Release: The first press release was published in October 1906 by Ivy Lee on behalf of the Pennsylvania Railroad. After a tragic accident, Lee issued a statement to reporters rather than concealing the facts, and the first press release was born! The release secured praise for the railroad’s honesty and was even reprinted in the New York Times. (Source: Meltwater)

  2. “I suspect in most companies, the Public Relations person is down at No. 20 in the pecking order. But here, he is fighting incredibly important battles. If a negative story starts running away with itself in the press and is not dealt with fast, it can badly damage the brand, and so we put enormous weight on our PR people.” – Richard Branson

  3. If you can build a powerful brand, you will have a powerful marketing program. If you CAN\’T then all the advertising, fancy packaging, sales promotion and Public Relations in the world won\’t help you achieve your objective. – Al Ries
