11 Iowa Beaches Not Safe to Swim | Des Moines News

With the heatwave driving folks to the lakes, beware: 11 state park beaches in Iowa are now off-limits for swimming due to unsafe water quality, up from 10 last week. The DNR’s weekly tests flag high E. coli and algae levels, and while two beaches have improved and returned to the safe list, others like Blue Lake and Lake Keomah remain under watch due to low water or renovations. Check the DNR’s website or call them before you dive — your health depends on it.
