Isimangaliso Wetland Park spokesperson Bheki Manzini told TimesLIVE: “The beaches are open, subject to lockdown level 3 directives.
“Swimming is allowed at designated beaches.”
Beaches that fall under eThekwini municipality's jurisdiction are still closed.
Municipal spokesperson Msawakhe Mayisela said last week, after beachgoers were caught on camera fleeing law-enforcement officials at a beach north of Durban, that they were closed until further notice.
“The only thing allowed is for you to go and walk. For groups to go to the beach, spend time and sit, is not allowed because that is a recipe for disaster,” he said.
The eThekwini region has been identified as a Covid-19 hotspot in KwaZulu-Natal.
