A swimming ban has been put in place with immediate effect at Lahinch Beach.
On the advice of the HSE, Clare County Council has today raised a Red Flag at Lahinch beach after the results of routine bathing water samples showed elevated levels of bacteria in the water.
In accordance with An Taisce’s Blue Flag programme, the Blue Flag at this bathing area will be removed until such time as the water quality improves.
The bathing restriction will remain in place until further notice.
