The Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County (DOH-Pinellas) has issued a water quality advisory for the following locations:

  • Honeymoon Island (Dunedin) Causeway-South
  • Courtney Campbell Causeway

Tests completed on Monday, August 5, indicate that the water quality at these locations does not meet the recreational water quality criteria for Enterococcus bacteria recommended by the Florida Department of Health.

DOH-Pinellas advises against any water-related activities at this location due to an increased risk of illness in swimmers. Sampling conducted during regular water quality monitoring showed that the level of bacteria exceeds the level established by state guidelines.

This advisory will continue until bacteria levels are below the accepted health level.
