Durban Westville

Westville is the first western borough of "Greater Durban", between the suburb of Sherwood and the industrial areas of Pinetown. Although west of Durban, Westville was actually named after Sir Martin West, Lieutenant-Governor of Natal in the mid-19th Century. His farm was transformed into this upmarket residential area. Recently Westville has become a business centre with prestigious office parks springing up and attracting major companies and professional firms.

Keen shoppers are provided for with shopping centres like the stylish Pavilion which draws shoppers from all over the province and beyond. Westville is also somewhat of an academic centre, boasting its own University at the Westville Campus of University of KwaZulu-Natal. Nature lovers are catered for with the Palmiet Nature Reserve. The reserve spans along the length of the valley, and has numerous trails which lead hikers to various interesting sites which include waterfalls, cliffs, a grassy mountain ridge and picnic sites. Palmiet Nature Reserve is also a bird watchers paradise with a multitude of various species to be spotted.
