Swimming has been banned at 10 Auckland beaches this summer because of worsening pollution from human and animal wastes.
Permanent signs declaring that the water is not safe for swimming went up at the start of summer at Laingholm and Wood Bay near Titirangi, the north and south lagoons at Piha, and at the Bethells Beach lagoon - all popular swimming spots for children too young to swim in the wild west coast surf.
Auckland Council has now stopped routine monitoring of water quality at all five sites, as well as at five other beaches that already had permanent warning signs - Cox s Bay, Meola Reef, Weymouth, the Wairau Stream outlet at Milford Beach and Little Oneroa lagoon on Waiheke Island.
After months away, sand has started to come back to Clarkes Beach. Reflections Clarkes Beach park manager David Faiers was happy to confirm the sand has started to come back to Clarkes beach from The Pass in the last couple of days. The sandbags have done their job, which was to protect the dunes until the sand started to return, he said. It s been slowly moving back. We have been waiting for months for this to happen, he said. Mr Faiers said visitors to the park have been enjoying access to a bigger beach during low tide in recent days.
