There are areas with severe water pollution
The Greek Ministry of Health has banned entry into the sea on 12 beaches in the Attica region, BNR reported.
When examining the quality of the sea water in the district, the authorities found that there are areas with severe water pollution, which is dangerous for people’s health. On this basis, the Ministry of Health has imposed a ban on entering and swimming in the sea in dangerous places.
In the Attica region, swimming is prohibited on the beach near all ports and places where vessels can be repaired. The sea must not be entered along the entire length from the port of Piraeus to Perama, as well as along the entire inner length of the port of Rafina. The ban applies to a total of 12 locations.
Signs have been placed indicating the reason for the restriction in place. Although there is a fine for violators, the local authorities do not expect that people will not obey because it is related to their health.
