Advisory lifted for Port Sydney beach

MEDIA RELEASE

The Town of Huntsville has been notified by the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit that an advisory has been LIFTED at the Port Sydney Beach.

The advisory had been issued on August 17. “An advisory is a warning to swimmers but it is not a beach closure. During an advisory, a beach is posted with warning signs when the water contains levels of bacteria that indicate there may be an increased risk of developing minor skin, eye, ear, nose and throat infections and stomach disorders. If you choose to swim during an advisory it may be prudent to avoid ducking your head or swallowing the water.”
