The Florida Department of Health in Miami-Dade County has issued a water quality advisory for Crandon Park North just ahead of the Memorial Day weekend.<\/p>\n
Water samples collected on Thursday, May 21, 2026, showed levels of Enterococcus bacteria \u2013 fecal matter \u2013 that exceed state safety guidelines. As a result, health officials are advising against swimming and all other water-related activities at this location due to an increased risk of illness.<\/p>\n
The advisory will remain in effect until subsequent testing shows that bacteria levels have dropped back down to acceptable health standards.<\/p>\n
Local beach test results are kept live at FloridaHealth.gov\/HealthyBeaches<\/a>. Residents can also contact the health department directly for more information at 305-324-2400 or by visiting MiamiDade.FloridaHealth.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Florida Department of Health in Miami-Dade County has issued a water quality advisory for Crandon Park North…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":280067,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[119495,115770,119499,1369,119497,119494,119500,123,125,124,119498,119496],"class_list":["post-280066","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-crandon-park-north-water-advisory","tag-enterococcus-bacteria","tag-fecal-matter-in-water-crandon-parkk-north","tag-florida-department-of-health","tag-key-biscayne-beach-closure","tag-key-bisicayne","tag-memorial-day-weekend-beach-safety","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news","tag-miami-dade-health-advisory","tag-no-swimming-crandon-park"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280066","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280066"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280066\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/280067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280066"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=280066"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=280066"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
