Currumbin Rockpools now open

 

Water quality testing has revealed that water quality at the Currumbin Rock Pools has returned within acceptable levels and warning signage has today been removed.

 

It is recommended that users continue to exercise caution when swimming, especially after rainfall.  Stormwater runoff can increase bacterial levels in the water and make it unsafe for swimming.

 

As a precaution, the City recommends to avoid swimming during and up to three (3) days after rainfall at the Currumbin Rock Pools.

Two beaches reopened today

Mayor Tom Tate said Surfers Paradise and Coolangatta beaches would reopen as of noon today.

“The Spit beach, along with all beach front car parks, will continue to remain closed until further notice,” he said.

“Red and yellow flags will remain down across all beaches, however our lifeguards will continue to conduct general surveillance.”

Mayor Tate said according to lifeguard reports, behaviour on beaches had been good with the majority of people abiding by social distancing measures.

“Gold Coasters are really showing they can do the right thing in an effort to overcome this virus. I encourage people to continue to exercise in their own neighbourhoods as much as possible,” he said.

 

The Spit is closed from Lifeguard Tower 42 Adjacent to Seaworld north to the Rock Wall adjacent to Tower 46.
