At a flag-raising ceremony on 14 Sep 2023, the WESSA Green Coast award was once again given to the Blaauwberg Nature Reserve. The Green Coast Status complements the international Blue Flag programme that recognises beaches with high environmental and quality standards.

Anyone or any organisation that wants to participate in the clean-ups, must please send their name, cell number and email address to
