Swimming Safely This Summer

This summer’s heatwave means more beach days — but safety first! Experts warn Ontario’s lakes and rivers can turn risky fast, especially after heavy rain, which can spike bacteria levels. Wait 24–48 hours post-storm before swimming, and watch for green, pea-soup water — that’s a sign of toxic algal blooms fueled by climate change. Check Swim Guide or local health alerts, and note: lifeguards are up 25% this season. Stay informed, stay safe, and enjoy the waves without the worry.
