Swellendam – The Swellendam Municipality health officials announced that it has given the go-ahead for water activities in the Breede River system to resume.
The municipality in the Western Cape suspended water sports activities at Breede River following sewerage contamination last week.
This meant that water sports activities could not take place at Bontebok National Park until health tests were conducted.
“Recent water testing results have confirmed that the water quality in the Breede River is now within acceptable levels for water sports,” South African National Parks said Thursday, (2 January 2025).
“Therefore, visitors may once again enjoy the facilities on offer at Bontebok National Park.”
