The Golden Mile is a stretch of beach with golden sands in Durban South Africa stretching from the uShaka marine world in the south, to the newly constructed Suncoast Casino and Entertainment World in the north. It is one of the main tourist attractions in the Durban area and provides many locations for sun worshippers to lounge, play games and enjoy the restaurants scattered along the mile. Famous hotels on, or near the mile include the former Maharani Hotel (now a 3-star Garden Court hotel) and the 5-star Royal Hotel, which is located in the nearby Central Business District.

The golden mile has long been a popular domestic holiday destination and during the holiday season, South Africans from across the country come in their droves.
