How It All Began:
The Sandbar is the brainchild of four locals who have called Umdloti home for many years. One sunny December day, after a few cocktails on the beach, we envisioned a restaurant and bar that embodied the essence of cool, vibrant, and fun – a place where locals and holidaymakers alike could come together to enjoy good, honest food, paired with great wines and colorful cocktails. Our philosophy is straightforward: "Good food, friendly service, served in a relaxed environment." Combine that with one of KZN's best restaurant locations, and we have one of Durban's best-kept secrets (but not for long!).

Experience the Sandbar:
Step into our restaurant and lounge, where warm colors and lighting create an inviting atmosphere adorned with old images of longboard surfers and captivating photography. Our vibe is cool, relaxed, and sophisticated – the perfect backdrop for soaking up sea views, enjoying good music, indulging in great food, and sipping on wicked cocktails.

Come dine with us, and let us treat you to an unforgettable experience that's sure to leave you relaxed, happy, and craving more.
