Keeping Cape Town Safe: Uniting Community, Knowledge, and Action on World Drowning Prevention Day

by Isabella Schmidt
December 1, 2025

Every year on July 25, Cape Town joins the world to remember those lost to drowning and to teach water safety. At the historic Long Street Indoor Swimming Pool, children and families learn important skills like swimming, floating, and spotting dangers in the water. Lifeguards and city leaders come together to share knowledge and encourage everyone to stay safe near oceans, rivers, and pools. The day is full of fun, learning, and hope, as Cape Town works hard all year to keep its community safe around water.
