This research institute is dedicated to studying sharks, specifically in relation to their danger to humans. There are audiovisual presentations and shark dissections at 9am and 2pm Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The Natal Sharks Board is signposted; it’s about 2km out of town, up steep Umhlanga Rocks Dr (the M12 leading to the N3).
The public can also accompany Sharks Board personnel on their boat trips from Durban.
