This week Waipu Cove was hit with a massive red Algal Bloom which made it almost impossible to surf or swim but is being cleaned up swiftly by local community volunteers, around 400 tonnes was removed in just one day with the clean up expected to take a number of days, it is very smelly but will be all sweet for the third annual Cove Fish Fry on the 13th of March, Mike C.
