FAQs – Because We Know You're Wondering
Can tourists buy weed in Durban? Technically, no. But everyone’s doing it. Dispensaries use a “private club” model. Sign a form, get your goods.
Is it safe to visit dispensaries? Yes – especially in tourist-friendly areas. Use Uber, be discreet, and you'll be fine.
Do I need ID or membership? Most places will take a quick sign-up and a passport. Some may ask for a small membership fee.
Can I smoke in public? Nope. Best to enjoy your buzz in private—your Airbnb balcony is your friend.
Can I fly with it? Domestic? Maybe. International? Absolutely not. Don't even try.

Cannabis Laws in Durban – Tourist Edition
Legal-ish: Cannabis is decriminalized for private use in SA. Selling isn’t technically legal, hence the “private club” model.
Don’t buy on the street. Durban dispensaries are safer and more reliable.
Be discreet. Public use is still illegal. Keep it low-key and you’ll be fine.
Don’t bring weed in or out of the country. Ever.
