There's a thread on avcom about frequent users renovating the strip.

The Avcom threads relates to the field at Mbazwane, close to Sodwana.

The airfield at St. Lucia closed many years ago.

The closest is the Monzi strip, about 10 miles straight line from St' Lucia, and then there is an ex military strip outside Mtubatuba (121 Battalion)

Be aware of the height restrictions when flying in the St. Lucia area, which extends to Sodwana in the North.

You are welcome to pm me for any further information.
