The Durham Region Weekly Beach Report provides information on the water quality at public beaches in the region. The report includes the results of the weekly water quality testing conducted by the Durham Region Health Department during the summer season. The report covers all the beaches in the region, including the newest addition, Iroquois Beach located in Whitby. However, the Health Department no longer tests water samples from Elgin Pond due to the absence of a designated swimming area. The report aims to inform beach visitors about safe swimming areas by identifying beaches with high levels of bacteria in the water. Please note that the reported results reflect routine, weekly monitoring conducted by Health Department staff unless otherwise indicated.
