Law enforcement officers of the eThekwini Municipality removed unlawfully erected structures from the dunes along South Beach on Monday.
The City said this unlawful occupation of the dunes, can compromise public safety and damage a sensitive coastal ecosystem.
As a result, law enforcement teams are expected to continue to monitor the coastline and carry out regular operations to maintain order.
The City said in a statement, that Durban’s beachfront and promenade are among the City’s key tourism attractions, drawing thousands of residents, tourists, joggers and other beachgoers for recreation, exercise and leisure.
The municipality, therefore, urged members of the public not to erect structures or occupy public spaces unlawfully.
