Beach Paradise Turns Sour: Vacationers Denied Access Due to Disturbing Water Find

Vacationers are being turned away from Playa Es Pinet beach in Ibiza, Spain, after high levels of fecal matter were discovered in the water, exceeding approved safety levels. The beach has been temporarily closed while the Department of the Environment investigates the cause of the contamination. The contaminated waters pose risks of E. Coli and intestinal Enterococcus bacteria infection. This closure follows the earlier closure of two other Ibiza beaches due to water contamination.
