Cedar Island Beach is closed this weekend due to high bacteria counts.
The Windsor-Essex Health Unit does not recommend swimming in six other local beaches because of the bacteria counts. Those beaches are the Hillman Marsh Beach, Cedar Beach, Mettawas Beach, Colchester Beach, Holiday Beach and West Belle River Beach.
The health unit conducts water testing at ten local beaches every Wednesday to determine if it's safe to swim in.
Officials warn water quality can change from day to day and they do not recommend swimming if there was recent heavy rainfall, if the water is cloudy or if you are unable to see your feet in the water.
