Swimmer might want to think twice before going for a dip at the following beaches.
Sewage has been reported in the water at West Bay and Eype as a result of the recent downpour and subsequent flooding.
Pollution risk 'warnings' have been flagged by environmental charity Surfers Against Sewage (SAS) since Wednesday, stating storm sewage has been discharged from sewer overflows.
It's also been reported at Seatown.
Those visiting the coast are advised to check SAS interactive map on its website before they swim.
