The "No Swim" advisories issued Thursday, August 23, for Lido Casino Beach and Venice Pier Beach have been lifted. Florida Department of Health in Sarasota County officials received testing results today that were at a satisfactory level meeting both the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state recreational water standards. Residents and visitors may return to swimming and other water sports at this beach site. The "no swim" advisory signage has been removed at both beaches. The advisory remains in effect for the Longboat Key Beach. The Florida Department of Health in Sarasota County monitors water quality weekly at 16 sites along Sarasota's 34 miles of beaches. The intent of this program is to provide county residents and visitors with accurate, up-to-date information on the water quality at our beaches. The Florida Department of Health in Sarasota County expects to have the next round of test results available on Thursday, August 30. The latest reports on beach conditions can be found on the website below.
