eThekwini reopens all but one beach
Updated | By Mamelisa Ngcongo
All but one beach in eThekwini has been reopened.
They had been closed to swimming and other water-related activities after rains earlier this month washed debris into the sea and dislodged shark gear.

The city's spokesperson, Gugu Sisilana, says Warner Beach remains closed.
"In addition to this, the public is reminded that the municipality is constantly monitoring the water quality at all beaches to ensure the safety of residents and tourists.
"The municipality has started a process of joint sampling of beach water quality with Adopt-a-River. This is a non-profit organisation whose samples are tested by an independent laboratory, Talbot.
"This is to enable credible comparison of test results in the interests of transparency and public safety."
