Yellowwood Park is a suburb of the city of Durban, South Africa, established in 1960. It is 14 km southwest of central Durban.

The land was given to the city of Durban by Kenneth Stainbank,[2] who also established the Kenneth Stainbank Nature Reserve located in the suburb.[3] The Stainbank family home, Coedmore Castle, still stands in the reserve.[4]
