Sea swimmers have been advised against bathing at a number of County Down beaches due to poor water quality. The Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (Daera) said during routine monitoring, sites breached action levels for the bacteria Escherichia coli (E.Coli). Warning signage is in place at the affected sites at Brompton, Ballyholme, Donaghadee and Crawfordsburn.
