Swimmers have been warned not to go into the sea at a beach over pollution fears. Thousands gathered at beaches across the UK yesterday, which was the hottest day of the year as temperatures reached the late 20s for most parts.
But the Environment Agency has warned people flocking to Withernsea beach in Yorkshire not to swim in the water despite the heat.
It's because of pollution "from dredging or construction work" and was first recorded on June 15, HullLive reports. They said the problem was expected to last until September 26, meaning beachgoers will be advised against swimming in the water there throughout the summer months.
