A section of Strand Beach and Small Bay in Blaauwberg that were affected by sewage spills have been given the all clear.

The City says the beaches have been reopened for recreational use.

The Deep Blue section of Strand beach was closed due to an electrical fault at the pump station. The issue has been resolved. Small Bay was closed due to a damaged sewer pipe. An interim fix has been put in place. The sewer flow is being diverted by a mobile pump.

The main bathing area at Fish Hoek Beach between the lifeguard station and Jager Walk remains close.
