Here is an item of interest to swimmers.
The Leisure and Cultural Services Department announced today (May 2) that the Environmental Protection Department has classified the water quality at Clear Water Bay First Beach and Clear Water Bay Second Beach in Sai Kung District as Grade 2, which means the water quality has improved and the beaches are suitable for swimming. Red flags were hoisted at these beaches earlier due to the water quality being classified as Grade 4 and unsuitable for swimming.
However, the red flags at the beach are still hoisted due to big waves. Beach-goers are advised not to swim at these beaches.
