This report provides historical information on the Zeekoevlei. The Zeekoe canal at present constitutes a public health hazard, particularly where it passes under the Baden Powell Drive bridge and flows across the beach into the sea. Drainage from Zeekoevlei and Rondevlei is concentrated in a narrow canal through the large dunefields of the Cape flats. The importance of the Cape Flats sewage works as a perennial coastal habitat for water birds in the South-western Cape has been mentioned in the report.
