Higher than normal bacteria at 1st Street, 8th Street, South of Pier, and 129 more beaches
Orange County health officials have posted a bacteria advisory at 1st Street, 8th Street, South of Pier, and 129 more beaches, where bacteria levels in the water are higher than normal. Counties post an advisory when water samples test above state health standards, or when runoff is likely to push them there. Swimming, surfing, or diving there raises the risk of getting sick, and the advisory stays in place until the county lifts it.
