The tidal waves of 2007
















In March 2007, tidal waves created immense damage along the whole of Kwa-Zulu Natal’s shoreline. The freak tidal waves were because of the equinox and the movement of the planets that happened on the same time. Tons of sand was eroded from beaches, and infrastructure was damaged. Some of the damages have been repaired; however, there are still reminders visible of the damage coursed by the powerful waves that struck the shoreline in 2007.

Above are pictures from 2007. Three pictures are of Durban harbor and the other two pictures are of Uvongo. The strength of the waves can be clearly being seen in all the photos.
