Storm damage has been reported across the Fleurieu following the wild weather earlier this week, with at least two jetties closed to the public.

District Council of Yankalilla has closed the Normanville Jetty and the Myponga Beach access stairs until further notice due to safety concerns.

The council has urged the community to take extra care when out and about and be mindful of debris, fallen branches and altered beach access due to sand movement.

It says staff were able to retrieve the Normanville pontoon largely undamaged, after it had shifted closer to the shore during the storm, and will now begin the process to see it returned to the water in time for summer.

There have also been reports of storm damage to Second Valley jetty and Port Noarlunga jetty, as well as the Aldinga Community Centre.

In a statement City of Onkaparinga says the impacts of the storm have been considerable to coastal areas, which have faced high tides, strong winds and large surf.  

The council proactively closed the Port Noarlunga jetty and Witton Bluff Base Trail boardwalk on Monday 26 May to ensure public safety.

"While the new boardwalk is holding strong, there has been some damage to the jetty’s decking and a section of handrail.

"It will now take some time to complete engineer inspections and repair, so the jetty will remain closed until further notice. It’s too early to say how long it will remain closed or the costs involved, but we’ll keep the community up to date as soon as we know more.

"We ask the community to stay safe and respect the closure – it’s in place for your protection – and we sincerely thank SES, SAPOL and our council crews who continue working tirelessly in challenging conditions."

There are hopes that the storm will have begun the process of clearing the algal bloom that has been affecting coastal waters off the Fleurieu and Kangaroo Island, but authorities say it may take up to week to assess.
