EAST LONDON- Attention beach lovers! Unfortunately, Nahoon Beach in East London is off-limits for now.
The Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality has reported a spillage incident on Saturday which led to pollution in the Ihlanza river and Nahoon Beach.
Initial samples have been taken, and while there are positive signs, we’re not out of the woods just yet.
A statement from the metro revealed, “The Metro is currently arranging for another sample to be tested, with hopes of getting the all-clear before the coming long weekend.”
Until the laboratory results show a clean bill of health, Nahoon Beach will remain closed for swimming.
Stay tuned for updates on when we can dip our toes back in the water!
