Bathers Advised Not to Swim at Grattan Beach in Salthill

Public notices advising bathers not to swim have been erected at Grattan beach in Salthill.

It comes after recent bathing water samples showed levels of E coli that breached EU mandatory permitted values.

Excessive rainfall over the past week is said to be a major contributory factor to the increased levels of bacteria detected.

Galway City Council is to continue monitoring the water quality at all of its beaches.
