This weekend marks the first official weekend of Summer.
If you're planning on travelling to the beach to celebrate, you may want to steer clear of these ones.

The beaches are:
- Belleview Beach in Wainfleet
- Charles Daley in Lincon
- Jones Beach in St. Catharines
- Lakeside Beach in St. Catharines
- Nelles Beach in Grimsby
- Sunset Beach in St. Catharines.
A beach is listed as unsafe or closed when water tests show high levels of e. coli bacteria.
The beach might also be unsafe because of floating debris, oil, excessive weed growth, bad odours and general turbidity.
