Umzinto is named after the Umzinto River, which takes its name from its destructive nature during floods. It is home to antelope and birds. Umzinto began as a centre for the sugar industry in 1858. It became a magistracy in 1865. Umzinto is predominantly an Indian-influenced town which gives it a slightly more exotic air than some of the other KwaZulu Natal coastal towns.Half an hour beyond Umzinto lies the 2,189 hectare Vernon Crookes Nature Reserve, a combination of open grassland and coastal forest... home to a wide range of wild animals plus more than 300 confirmed bird species. KwaZulu-Natal Wildlife Service maintains the reserve and its accommodation facilities.
