Old Pont Holiday Resort, affectionately known simply as "The Pont," is a legendary destination for water sports enthusiasts on the KZN South Coast. Perfectly situated on the banks of the majestic Umtamvuna River in Port Edward, this resort has been a hub of family fun and boating adventure for generations. It offers a vibrant and lively atmosphere where the river is the undisputed star of the show.
The resort provides a fantastic camping experience with a large number of fully grassed and generously shaded campsites, ensuring a comfortable setup even during the hot summer months. Most of these sites are equipped with a 15-amp electrical supply, and they are all serviced by four large, clean, and well-maintained ablution blocks that are conveniently located throughout the property. For added peace of mind, the entire resort is patrolled by security around the clock.
Life at The Pont is all about the water. The resort is famous for its excellent slipway and boating facilities, making it a paradise for water skiers, wakeboarders, and anyone with a speedboat or jet ski. The wide, calm river is also perfect for more leisurely pursuits like paddling, fishing, or taking a scenic sunset cruise. The on-site restaurant and pub, with its beautiful deck overlooking the river, provides a fantastic social hub where you can enjoy a meal and watch the activity on the water.
