Holidaymakers warned over water quality as dirtiest beaches are named

Newspaper the Times has published an article explaining that many beaches in the UK have dirty water. According to a research from the Marine Conservation Society and published in the “Good beach guide”, one of the most dirtiest beaches is the much visited Church beach in Dorset. Other beaches that have dirty water are South Wales, Devon, Lancashire etc., showing that the beaches that are dirty are all popular resorts. The times warn that when you decide to go to the coast for Bank Holiday weekend it is best to go to the beaches that have come through the test with a sufficient. The Marine Conservation Society hold the sewers overflow responsible for the quality of the water. If the water does not improve within the next five years the authorities will advice the public not to go into the water to prevent health problems. The public is advised to go visit one of 421 beaches that haven’t had any problems with the water.

I think this is a serious issue that has to be dealt with, because it will become worse if nothing is done. It’s actually a shame that so many beaches did not come through the test, because the beaches that have such terrible waters are really nice! And apart from that, who needs to swim in the sea when they are already polluted and when we have swimming pools?!? If you are desperate to go to the beach, then don’t go into the water but have a good look at the nice view and other surrounding such as Lulworth cove in Dorset, It’s absolutely magnificent!! I went there in 2008, and the view is just so WOW that you wouldn’t even be bothered to go into the sea.
