An interactive map displaying sea water quality around Jersey's coast for 2024 is now live online. The website provides access to the results of routine sampling at 16 bays across the island. These areas are regularly monitored by government experts from May to September each year.
Seawater quality is categorized as excellent, good, or poor, with the data used to advise swimmers about the suitability of specific bays.
The launch of the website follows a public health warning advising people not to swim at a beach where high levels of E. coli were detected in the water.
Public health officials stated that an investigation into the cause of the pollution at Greve de Lecq is ongoing.
