Penhorn Lake Beach reopens to swimming
The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that Penhorn Lake Beach in Dartmouth has reopened to swimming.
Penhorn Lake Beach is a supervised beach. Municipal staff regularly test the water quality at all supervised municipal beaches, as well as one unsupervised beach, during the summer months.
Previous test results showed high bacteria levels in the water, but follow-up tests now show the water is once again safe, in accordance with Health Canada guidelines.
For more information on municipal beaches and outdoor pools across the Halifax region, please visit our beaches page.
