Location
The town is situated on the Indian Ocean coastline, approximately 20 kilometres south of Scottburgh and 60 kilometres south of Durban.
Bazley is a tiny town, covering an area of less than 3 square kilometres.
The town itself is situated on a narrow strip of land between the ocean and the surrounding hills, and it is home to a small population of around 600 people (though most are not permanent residents).
It is bound by the Ifafa river in the south and the Ndesingane river in the north. We count Ifafa town (in the south) and Sizela/Pennington (in the north) as our immediate neighbours.
The town overlooks the Indian ocean to the east and is entirely surrounded to the west by the quiet, rustling cane fields of Illovo Sugar, who we count as a very supportive neighbour.
Bazley is a designated Protected Coastal Environmental Habitat in terms of the National, Provincial and Municipal legislation. In addition, Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife recognises Bazley as an important Natural Biodiversity Corridor.
