West Beach West contamination
Published on 16 January 2025
Recent water sampling tests have shown elevated levels of bacteria at West Beach West (West of the Playground).
We have assessed the situation and have erected signage recommending you to not enter the water until further notice.
Our
teams are conducting an investigation at this time, and have notified the Department of Health.
Once it is deemed safe, the signage will be removed.
During summer, water sampling is done every fortnight, and we will provide an update when this improves.
