Petition updateRandwick Council to consider opening the beaches for Exercise & Mental Health reasons.Swim n Go - Randwick Council Beaches- When ?

Everyone keeps asking me... when ???

It seems like a life time ago we could take a dip ! 

To see that all that beautiful ocean space out there !

The Beaches North and South closed for Easter but by all accounts they will re-open next week.

The main Gold Coast Beaches are closed although they have allowed  people to exercise on the sand and in the water and then leave.

It is my understanding Randwick Council are "working on it" which would also include the best time to re-open - it certainly wasn't gong to be before Easter!

The  Mayor of Waverley recently said that all the Eastern Suburbs Councils were working together and one would not open without the other . This is probably to assist with the issue of non-locals moving in on beach suburbs that are open and therefore putting undue pressure on those beaches. 

In the meantime the coastal walks are overcrowded which is also a concern.

Hoping to hear some good news soon......
