Beach Water Quality
From their website:
Huron Perth Public Health regularly samples the beaches for bacteria. However, due to the delay in receiving lab results, beach goers cannot rely on only lab results to know if it is safe to swim.
Ask yourself these questions to decide if it’s safe to swim:
- Is the water turbid (can’t see my feet while standing waist deep in water)?
- Has there been heavy rainfall in the last 24 to 48 hours?
