About: Ramsgate, KwaZulu-Natal

Ramsgate is a resort and retirement town on the south coast of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa just south of Margate. The name was given by a surveyor to the coastal farm at the mouth of the Bilanhlolo River, (the marvellous boiler). In 1922 the only person living here was a romantic character called Paul Buck, a painter and violin maker who called the place Blue Lagoon.
