SERVICES TO SHARE THIS PAGE. Los Angeles County has temperatures in the 90s, but officials are asking the public to stay out of the water at a dozen Los Angeles County beaches. High levels
of bacteria have been detected at the locations. That can cause serious illnesses up to and including death in certain vulnerable people, including children, the elderly, or those who are
immunocompromised, said the L.A. County Department of Public Health. No specific cause for the warnings was given. The public is advised to avoid swimming, surfing, and playing in these
locations: –AVENUE I STORM DRAIN AT REDONDO COUNTY BEACH – 100 yards up and down the coast from the storm drain. –BLUFF COVE AT PALOS VERDES BEACH – The entire swim area. –HERMOSA BEACH PIER
AT HERMOSA BEACH – 100 yards up and down the coast from the pier. –MALAGA COVE CREEK AT PALOS VERDES BEACH – The entire swim area. –MANHATTAN BEACH PIER IN MANHATTAN BEACH – 100 yards up
and down the coast from the pier. –MARIE CANYON STORM DRAIN AT PUERCO BEACH – 100 yards up and down the coast from the public access steps. –TOPANGA CANYON BEACH IN MALIBU – 100 yards up and
down the coast from the creek. –MALIBU LAGOON STATE BEACH AT SURFRIDER BEACH – 100 yards up and down the coast from the public restrooms. –SAPPHIRE STREET EXTENSION AT REDONDO COUNTY BEACH
– 100 yards up and down the coast of Sapphire Street. –SANTA MONICA PIER IN SANTA MONICA – 100 yards up and down the coast from the pier. WATCH ON DEADLINE “These warnings have been issued

Advisories will be lifted once the levels meet standards set by the state of California. For the latest information on beach closures and warnings, check the L.A. County Department of
