The swim advisory issued by the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit (SMDHU) for Dwight and Port Sydney beaches has been lifted.
During a swimming advisory, the beach is posted with warning signs that the most recent water samples showed bacteria in numbers that may increase your risk of developing minor skin, eye, ear, nose, or throat infections or stomach illness. If you choose to swim during a swimming advisory avoid dunking your head or swallowing the water.
