*Power outage scheduled for Sandbaai on 4 December 2025*

Today we had the privilege of visiting the Langa Bicycle Hub

An inspiring initiative that serves as an oasis of hope and empowerment for our communities. With a strong focus on cycling programs and youth development, the hub is creating meaningful opportunities for growth and positive change.

We look forward to establishing a similar facility within the Overstrand in the near future.

*2x New Overstrand Fires: 08 November 2025 @ 15:00*

Overstrand Fire Services are currently attending to two new fires in the region, in addition to ongoing flare-ups in the Gansbaai area.

*Fire 1: De Kop, Stanford*��The De Kop fire was reported at 13:54. Additional firefighting resources from Hermanus and Gansbaai have been deployed to assist crews on scene.
�Firefighters have managed to contain the head of the fire, while one team is focused on structural protection at the De Kop informal settlement, as the fire has advanced very close due to strong winds. Mop-up operations will continue.

Overstrand Fire Services urge parents to keep a close eye on their children, particularly in the De Kop area, where reports have been received of children igniting new fires. This behaviour is extremely dangerous and poses a serious threat to lives, property, and emergency personnel.
Law Enforcement has been requested to respond to the area to assist in preventing further incidents.

*Fire 2: Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, Hermanus*
�A grass fire was reported opposite High Seasons Farm in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. Firefighters have contained the fire and are currently conducting mop-up operations.

Residents in and around Hermanus may notice heavy smoke hanging in the air. This smoke is mainly from the large fire in the Bredasdorp area, although the Overstrand fires are also contributing slightly to the smoky conditions.

We urge residents to remain alert and to report any smoke or fire immediately to the Overstrand Fire & Rescue Emergency Control Room at 028 312 2400.
