Cosy Durban Holidaymakers Hotels Natal Promenade Refreshments Rooms Umbrella Umbrellas Vacation
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a rainy day at the Sea Front in Durban, Natal Province, South Africa, circa 1913. The image presents a tranquil scene of the seaside promenade, where the sound of the crashing waves meets the gentle patter of raindrops against the pavement. The buildings lining the promenade, with their ornate facades and tall, imposing structures, add a sense of grandeur and elegance to the scene. Despite the wet weather, holidaymakers can be seen strolling along the promenade, their umbrellas held high to shield them from the rain. The presence of several hotels and tea rooms suggests that even on a rainy day, the Sea Front remained a popular destination for leisure and relaxation. The cosy interiors of these establishments would have offered visitors a respite from the inclement weather, providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere where they could enjoy a hot beverage and a moment of rest. The road leading away from the Sea Front is barely visible through the rain-soaked air, adding to the sense of isolation and serenity. The photograph captures the beauty of Durban's Sea Front on a rainy day, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring appeal of the seaside as a holiday destination.
