On Tuesday, the Coronado coastline was reopened to the public after water quality samples improved, as announced by the county Department of Environmental Health and Quality. Initially, the beach area had been closed on Sunday due to high levels of bacteria. However, by late Monday afternoon, DEHQ officials confirmed that samples now met state health standards.
Despite the reopening of Coronado, closures were still in effect for other coastlines with elevated bacteria levels. These included Tijuana Slough, Imperial Beach, and Silver Strand from the International Border to south of Avenida Lunar. Officials warned the public to steer clear of water contact in these areas as sewage contamination could cause illness.
Beachgoers need to stay informed about the water quality in order to ensure their safety and well-being while enjoying these coastal areas. In addition to Coronado, La Jolla Children’s Pool and Ocean Beach’s dog beach also had an advisory to avoid water contact due to elevated bacteria levels. It is important for everyone to follow these guidelines in order to protect themselves and others from potential harm caused by contaminated water sources.
