Following water quality tests, officials have now received the all-clear.
The City of Cape Town on Sunday closed the beach as a precautionary measure after effluent from a blocked sewer spilled into the ocean.
Last week, Muizenberg Beach was also closed due to a similar issue due to an electrical failure at a nearby sewer pump station. Communications manager at the city's water & sanitation department, Farouk Robertson: "The results have confirmed that the water quality is within the minimal requirements for recreation activities as determined by the national water quality guidelines."
