Water

Risks

Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) can occur during particular current directions and after several days of calm, warm weather. Large accumulations of macroalgae (seaweed) at the shoreline may accumulate toxins as they decompose and can shelter disease-causing bacteria from UV degradation. Swimmers are advised to avoid bathing near large seaweed accumulations and to check for information advising against bathing during algal blooms.
