Algal blooms no longer visible at Point Pelee

Parks Canada is no longer discouraging people and their pets from swimming or wading in the western shores of Point Pelee National Park, where blue-green algal blooms were present earlier this week.

"There are no longer blue-green algal blooms visible along the western shore of Point Pelee National Park," read a notice from the park's Facebook page.

Meanwhile, Windsor-Essex County Health Unit's beach water sampling results show most of the region's beaches are safeto remain open based on E. coli count.

However, Colchesterbeach has been deemed unsafe for swimming for now.
