Planning a trip to the beach this week? Before you decide to walk along the shore to get your feet wet, take note of the San Diego County Department of Environmental Health and Quality (DEHQ) recent beach management actions, released on Monday, July 24, 2023.

New Beach Management Actions:

DEHQ has issued a water contact warning for Silver Strand Shoreline. South swell conditions are present and pushing ocean waters from the south to the north (transboundary flows). Beachgoers are advised that bacteria levels exceed State health standards and ocean waters may contain sewage and cause illness.

On-going Beach Management Actions:

The above beaches remain under advisory. Beach goers are advised that bacteria levels have exceeded state health standards and may cause illness.

Warning – Imperial Beach Shoreline

The Imperial Beach Shoreline remains under warning. South swell conditions are present and pushing ocean waters from the south to the north (transboundary flows). Beachgoers are advised that bacteria levels exceed State health standards and ocean waters may contain sewage and may cause illness.

Closure – Tijuana Slough Shoreline

The ocean shoreline from the International Border to the South end of Seacoast Drive will remain closed until sampling confirms these areas are safe for water contact. The public is advised to avoid water contact as the water is impacted by sewage and may cause illness.

When the new Southeastern Live Well Center opens to the public this fall, visitors will walk through the building and find themselves on an artistic journey. Thirty-three local painters, sculptors, woodworkers and multi-media artists have combined their talents to tell the stories of the community and illustrate the beauty of its diversity.

One of the feature pieces is incorporated into the building’s central stairwell. It is a multimedia display using textiles to represent cultures of the past, present and future by Kumeyyay artist, Francisco Eme and ceramic artist, Evan Lopez.

A Southeastern Live Well Center community celebration will take place Saturday, October 14.
