The hatchery offers a unique wedding destination close enough to the major centres yet different enough to place guests in the moment. The surrounding villages of Mtunzini and Zinkwazi offer ample accommodation for those guests not staying at the venue. The Hatchery is set on a deserted old prawn farm on a river mouth and coastal reserve on the KZN North Coast. The history of the facility was kept in mind when converting the facility and the buildings look much like they did when prawns were spawned here. The result is a venue that offers a unique blend of comfort and rustic old cool in an idyllic setting. Our venue can accommodate a total of 150 guests.  Note that this is for the reception and not for the accommodation itself.

Apart from being an awesome place to have a wedding, the combination of timeworn old buildings, dunes with long grasses, and the stunning Amatikulu lagoon and beach just down a winding sandy path, offer a range of beautiful backdrops for your wedding photos.
