It could not be confirmed by the Western Cape Fisheries department whether a possible red tide along the west coast could stop the collecting of shellfish.

The department has been noticing the development since last week.

A red tide is referred to as a reddish or brownish colouration of water.

It is caused by the rapid reproduction of a variety of toxic single-celled organism.
