Seaforth and Waters Edge Beaches reopened

11 November 2021

The City of Cape Town's Health Department advises the public that Seaforth and Waters Edge Beaches have been reopened for recreation.

Water sampling has confirmed that bacterial counts have returned to safe levels.  

The beaches were closed as a precaution, following a sewage spill in the vicinity of the parking area on Thursday, 4 November 2021.

The pipe was fully repaired the same day, the area was cleaned, and bio-enzymes were also applied. 

Furthermore, the road surface has been levelled until resurfacing can be completed. The reason for the break is still under investigation.
