Welcome to Ballito.Fun
Your local hub for discovering venues, events, activities, and experiences across Ballito and the Dolphin Coast â built by locals, for the community.
Our Story
Ballito.fun was born from a simple idea: Ballito and the surrounding Dolphin Coast have so much to offer, but there was no single place to find it all. Whether you're a local looking for something to do this weekend or a visitor planning your stay, the information was scattered across social media, Google, and word of mouth.
We set out to change that. Ballito.fun brings together venues, events, specials, activities, and bookable experiences all under one roof â making it effortless to discover what's happening and get involved.
More than just a directory, we're a platform that empowers local businesses to reach their community, sell tickets, take bookings, and run promotions â all with the tools to grow their presence without needing to be tech experts.
