Muizenberg beachfront project reaches 82% as phased reopening nears
Construction is advancing across Muizenberg’s beachfront, with the western parking area, public facilities and Surfer’s Corner nearing key milestones.
The Muizenberg beachfront project has reached 82% completion, with various phases of the refurbishment nearing completion. The old sandstone seawall has been demolished, and beach cleaning is underway, with backfilling in progress. Work on the western parking area has advanced, with concrete benches installed and kerbing, paving, and street-light installation under way.
Foundations for the new central ablution facility are being cast, while refurbishment of the Shark Spotters and Adaptive Surfing buildings continues. The project team aims to reopen the beach for the public by mid-December 2026, with the first opening phase expected to include the western parking area, access to the St James walkway, the station forecourt, and beach access points.
