The restriction has been put in place following the detection of elevated levels of bacteria in routine bathing water samples which it’s believed is the result of run-off after heavy rainfall
In accordance with An Taisce’s Blue Flag programme, the beach’s Blue Flag will be removed until the issue is rectified.
