Shubie Beach Closed to Swimming

Wednesday, July 30, 2014 (Halifax, NS) – The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that Shubie Beach in Dartmouth is closed to swimming due to high bacteria levels.

Employees regularly test the water quality at its supervised municipal beaches and recent test results indicate that bacteria levels at Shubie Beach exceed Health Canada swimming guidelines. The municipality will advise residents when the beach reopens.
