The resort town of Pennington was named after Richard Pennington and is home to Botha House built by General Louis Botha for his wife, Annie, on land given to him by Sir Frank Reynolds, a sugar magnate and a member of the Colony's Legislative Council. Umdoni Park, a sanctuary named after the Umdoni tree, was established by Sir Frank to preserve the indigenous fauna and flora. He presented it to the South African nation in 1920 and the Umdoni Trust was formed. Today, the Park offers wonderful walking trails and excellent birding.

Pennington lies on the South Coast, about 3km from the Mzinto River mouth. It is located about 80km south of the Durban city centre. This town, the centre of a large sugar cane and dairy farming district, offers many nature reserves, including Nkomba Bird Sanctuary, Nkumban Dam, Elysium Wetland, Ifafa Lagoon Estuary and Mkamati Dam. Visitors to the Vernon Crookes Nature Reserve can enjoy the fine coastal forest and grasslands, and the animals that wander through the reserve include impala, blue wildebeest, zebra and eland.

A bit of exploration in Pennington will reveal delights like golfing at the Umdoni Golf Course and Selborne Park course where a round of golf comes complete with game and bird watching, as well as spectacular views of the Indian ocean and indigenous forest, also, take a stroll through the local Indigenous Nursery to see the stunning plants and birds native to South Africa.

Pennington’s warm waters boast a rich blend of fish species and this has given rise to a large sport fishing community, this beautiful area offers a large number of trophy barracuda, garrick, sharks and salmon. The  'Couta Classic’ is held annually in Pennington over the Easter weekend and attracts hundreds of fisherman from all over the country to participate in one of the largest fishing competitions in KwaZulu Natal. Besides the excellent bass and deep sea fishing on offer, rock and surf fishing is very popular, with catches such as shad, sharks and rays, grunter, kingfish and pompano.

If fishing or golf is not of interest, Pennington offers an enticing array of other exciting activities like snorkelling, scuba diving, horse riding on the beach and bird watching.
