Still No Swimming

You can now add Grand Isle to the growing list of Louisiana beaches with no swimming advisories. Back in June we reported on the advisories issued for Cypremore Point, Holly Beach and Long Beach and now Robert Zullo of the dailycomet.com is reporting that the Department of Health and Hospitals has issued a no swim advisory for Grand Isle as well. They say that testing shows an unhealthy level of bacteria in the water. This is unfortunate as the warning was issued right before Grand Isle's biggest tourist event, the Tarpon Rodeo, was happening.
