Help us prevent flooding, and protect your home and community

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

We’re out and about every day doing our bit to manage our stormwater network and prevent flooding where possible, but we can’t be everywhere. If you see something we need to know about, send us an Antenno request.

Water quality at our district's rivers and beaches is generally pretty good over summer. Our monitored sites are currently green (suitable for swimming), but do check LAWA before you jump in, and remember to:

💧 wait 2–3 days after rain before swimming, and avoid river mouths and stormwater outlets on our beaches
💧 keep an eye out for toxic algae during summer, dogs are particularly at risk while scavenging at the river’s edge.


And make sure you do summer right by checking if your favourite swimming spots are safe for swimming 👉🏼 www.lawa.org.nz...
