The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Be careful if you're near the coastline tomorrow, Kāpiti, as MetService New Zealand have issued a Heavy Swell Warning from 6am 23 November to 6pm 24 November.

⚠️ What should you do?
- be careful when walking and driving along roads directly exposed to the sea during this time
- live in an exposed coastal area? Park your vehicles away from the seaward side of the road and be prepared for surface flooding, debris impact in wave runup and deposition of driftwood, seaweed, sand and gravel
- check the forecast before heading out on a boat, and if in doubt, do not go.
