Swimming advisories are in effect at Little Lake Park Midland Beach, Pete Pettersen Park Beach, Rotary Champlain Wendat Park in Penetanguishene and in Tiny Township, Jackson Park, Lafontaine Beach and Woodland Beach.
The Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit issued the advisories due to higher than normal bacteria count in the water.
The advisory warns swimmers that the level of bacteria in the water may pose increased health risks, such as minor skin, eye, ear, nose and throat infections and stomach disorders.
The beaches are not closed, but those who chose to swim are advised to avoid swallowing the water and dunking their heads underwater.
The health unit tests the water at local beaches once a week.
