BEACH WATER QUALITY TESTING

updated 08/26/26

Short Beach – open
Black Rock/Doggie Beach – open
Tudor Beach – open
40 Steps Beach – open

The above beaches are tested on a weekly basis from June to September. If any beaches are closed for swimming it will be noticed here and a red “NO SWIMMING” flag will be present at that area.

If Beaches are closed for swimming due to high bacteria we will continue to test the water on a daily basis until we have a result that is safe.
