Restoring Onrus Beach

November 10, 20233 min read

Coastline Flooring Specialists proudly supports the Onrus Beach Restoration Project aimed at reviving the beauty and vitality of Onrus Beach following the recent flood damage. We understand the importance of safeguarding this cherished destination, not only for its aesthetic value but also for the economic, recreational, and communal significance it holds for the Onrus community.

About the Project:

The Onrus Beach Restoration Project was initiated in response to the significant damage caused by a flooding event on September 25, 2023. Led by collaborative efforts from the Onrus River Ratepayers Association, Onrus River Rescue Group, and Onrus River Estuary Forum, in coordination with the Operational and Environmental Department of the Overstrand Municipality, the project aims to restore Onrus Beach and its surrounding areas to their former glory.

Cleanup Focus:

The Onrus Beach Restoration Project is centred on two critical cleanup areas:

Section A - The Beach: Ensuring Safety and Access

Here, safety is a top priority. Large tree stumps pose safety hazards on the beach, and your involvement will help remove them, creating a safer environment. 

Section B - Lagoon Area: Protecting Our Natural Haven

The lagoon area, Section B, is a vital ecosystem. Your support will help remove tree stumps and organic debris, promoting a cleaner and healthier environment. This ecologically sensitive area requires careful manual reed removal to safeguard its unique biodiversity. Access challenges with large equipment require manual reed removal, where your participation is crucial. Your involvement ensures the protection and restoration of this natural haven.

Support the Cause:

To contribute to this vital project and support the restoration of Onrus Beach, you can spread the word about the initiative and encourage others to get involved.

Vital Reasons to Spread Awareness:

  1. Economic Foundations in Peril:

Onrus Beach isn't just a picturesque escape; it serves as the financial bedrock of our Onrus and Vermont community, driving tourism and bolstering local businesses. 

  1. Property Values Under Threat:

This restoration project plays a pivotal role in maintaining the stability of property values in our community.

  1. Recreation Endangered:

Onrus Beach, a hub for our leisure activities, is currently lacking in both safety and enjoyment. 

  1. Preserving Community Cohesion and Identity:

The current condition poses a risk to the unity and identity that Onrus Beach embodies. Through the act of raising awareness and making contributions, we can safeguard the very essence of our Onrus and Vermont community for generations to come.

Coastline Flooring Specialists extends a sincere thank you to all who have already contributed towards this essential project, including Seeff Hermanus, Milk on the Beach, Van Dyk Saayman Attorneys, The Marketing Desk, and OK MiniMark Onrus. Your collective efforts are instrumental in amplifying the impact of our restoration efforts.
