Something to note if you’re heading out over the long weekend.
The great weather around Ireland has probably seen a lot of people head off to the beach to soak up some sun, but if you’re living in Dublin and plan on cooling down in the sea, this information is for you.
Fingal County Council have issued a no bathing warning for the following beaches; Skerries south beach, Balbriggan front strand beach, Rush north beach and Loughshinny beach.
The warning was issued yesterday but it will remain in place for three days. There’s a health hazard because the water has been contaminated by a suspected sewage discharge from a nearby waste water treatment plant.
