Ansteys Beach is one of the beaches on the Bluff in Durban. It is a popular beach over the weekend. Brighton Beach is further down the narrow road that passes Ansteys.

Ansteys, like all Durban beaches, have warmer water all year. Durban typically has a hot, humid summer and very mild winter which is why you will find swimmers and surfers in the water all year round.

The beach is popular with sunbathers, surfers and fisherman and there is ample room for everyone. At low time their are some rock pools to go and investigate to look for interesting marine creatures. Local residents often go for a walk along the beach towards Brighton Beach, sometimes taking their dogs with them.

A small restaurant serves a variety of meals. There is backpacker accommodation nearby.
