## Resource

Ballygally Beach in Co Antrim is off-limits for swimming due to dangerously high E. coli levels detected in water samples — a serious health risk that’s prompting official warnings and local council alerts. With counts exceeding the safety threshold of 1,250 colony-forming units per 100ml, authorities urge everyone to stay out until conditions improve, especially after heavy rain can flush pollutants into coastal waters.
