Mtwalume is a settlement in Ugu District Municipality in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa.
A small seaside village about 87 km south of Durban, it is predominantly a holiday and fishing village. The name "Mtwalume" is derived from Zulu, and refers to the tall upright trees growing on the river bank. The Mtwalume River winds for 85 km and ends in a waterfall near Highflats.[2]
