As preparations for the summer rush pick up pace along the False Bay coastline, City officials are urging beachgoers to plan ahead.
A stretch of Strand Beach, specifically the area known as Mosterd's Bay, will be inaccessible from 15 December to 15 January 2026 as authorities prioritise visitor safety during ongoing construction, as noted by the City of Cape Town .
City representatives explained that the closure forms part of the broader second phase of the Strand seawall project, an upgrade designed to reinforce this coastal strip for the long term.
