Bathing is now open at several South Coast beaches
Some beaches were previously closed to bathers as a result of shark nets having been removed.
THE KwaZulu-Natal Sharks Board has today confirmed that bathing is again open at many South Coast beaches, including Scottburgh, a favorite with many holidaymakers.
“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 resources available,” Mike Anderson-Reade, head of the board said.
