The Florida Department of Health warned Saturday that the bacterial levels in tested water samples showed swimming at two public beach parks in Miami-Dade County posed health risks.
The public health agency warned against water-related activities at Haulover Beach Southalong Collins Avenue in Miami Beach,and Crandon Park North along Crandon Boulevard near Key Biscayne and Virginia Key.
According to the public health agency, a routine test completed on Tuesday did not meet the recreational water quality criteria for enterococcus, a bacteria indicative of disease-causing fecal waste.
The advisory will remain in effect until bacteria levels are below the accepted level.
