Algal bloom

People are encouraged to visit our coastal regions, follow the health advice, and enjoy the broad range of tourism experiences available across South Australia’s coastal regions.

South Australian beaches are safe to enjoy. If the water is clear, it’s fine to swim. However, it is best to stay away from foamy or abnormally coloured water, which may cause irritation.

Visit algalbloom.sa.gov.au for all of the latest information on the algal bloom impacting parts of South Australia’s coastline.
