On Saturday, high tides swept through the area during the spring tides, resulting in a 93-year-old woman dying in Wilderness and at least eight properties being damaged along the Bikini Beach area of Gordon's Bay.
CAPE TOWN - Communities living near the coastline in the Western Cape and neighbouring Eastern Cape were still reeling from the effects of the high tides that swept through the area on Saturday.
It is understood that she was swept off her feet by waves that penetrated a car park in Wilderness, causing the cars to be swept away with the storm surge. Scores of properties were also damaged by the spring tide, due to its excessive wave movements and strong winds.The City of Cape Town Disaster Risk Management Centre said initial assessments found damage to eight properties in the Gordons Bay Bikini Beach area.
Though the South African Weather Services issued an advisory warning for continued rough and choppy seas, which should subside by Sunday evening, Mayco member of Safety and Security in the City of Cape Town JP Smith said no significant emergency was identified on Sunday.
