The drowning of at least five people in Nelson Mandela Bay in recent weeks has highlighted the desperate need for water safety education and safe swimming facilities in the metro.

An inconsolable wife held the hand of a family member as she emerged from the reeds at the Van der Kemps Kloof nature reserve after she was given the daunting task of identifying the body of her murdered husband on Wednesday afternoon.
Almost 20 years since the Nelson Mandela Bay council decided to pursue the process of having Van Der Kemp’s Kloof declared a nature reserve, there are renewed efforts to finally have the plan realised.
