Swimming Advisory Issued for Dog Beach on Key Biscayne

A swimming advisory has been issued for Dog Beach on Key Biscayne after tests showed high levels of bacteria.

Officials with the Florida Department of Health in Miami-Dade issued the advisory Thursday after beach water samples didn't meet the recreational water quality standard for enterococci.

The department advises against swimming at Dog Beach for now since water contact may pose an increased risk of illness.
