Please Note: There is a temporary health warning in place at the Collingwood boat ramp and Rototai reserve sampling sites due water testing showing high levels of harmful bacteria during outgoing tides. Collecting seafood is not recommended and swimming is generally more suitable on incoming tides. Warning signs have been put up at these sites.
A rāhui is still in place across part of the Motueka coastline. Further information on this, including a map of the affected area is available on this link.
We release an annual recreational (swimming, watersports) water quality report detailing results from the 12 sites (six freshwater, four coastal and two tidal river) that we regularly sample. You can read the most recents reports here.
