About Phoenix

Phoenix is a large township located approximately 20km north of Durban‘s city centre in KwaZulu-Natal. Situated between the N2 highway and the Umhlanga Rocks area, this vibrant community was established in the 1970s as part of South Africa’s apartheid-era relocation policies.

Phoenix’s position along major transport routes provides easy access to Durban’s business districts while maintaining its own distinct character. The township’s landscape features a mix of formal housing, informal settlements, shopping centres and community spaces that reflect its complex history and ongoing development.
