SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, September 27 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The City Council of Granadilla de Abona has decreed today, Wednesday, September 27, the temporary closure of Playa El Médano (central beach) and Playa Leocadio Machado after detecting in the analyzes that an indicator exceeds the maximum permitted level. In addition, the red flag has been raised, temporarily prohibiting bathing.
From the Consistory it is reported that only the central beach and Leocadio Machado exceed the levels allowed for bathing. It should be noted that although the samples taken on previous days showed results of good water quality, new results received today have exceeded the permitted parameter for Enterococci.
Today, Wednesday, samples were taken again to carry out a counter-analysis by the municipal service. The City Council is taking this measure to guarantee the safety of bathers, pending the results of the latest analysis, and as soon as they confirm that the waters are suitable for bathing, they will be reopened. It is recommended to follow the restrictions of the beach rescue and safety team.
