“The KZN Sharks Board is currently experiencing industrial action with its labour force and as such has had to temporarily reduce the number of protected beaches the organisation is able to service with the limited resources available. Visitors to the beaches are requested to check with the lifeguards prior to entering the water.”
Bathing is currently open at only the following beaches:
- North Coast: Willards Beach (Ballito Bay main beach),
- Umhlanga Rocks main beach.
- Durban: Ushaka to Bay of Plenty Beach inclusive
- South Coast: St Michaels, Uvongo, Lucien, Margate, Ramsgate, Southbroom, San Lameer.
