All the effort we’ve put into cleaning our water was never just about pollution. It was about restoration. It was about bringing people back to the water’s edge—where ecosystems, wildlife, and communities can thrive together. @swimdrinkfish @swimguide

I’ve been using the Swimguide app, it uses the same swimsafe data but it’s a Canadian app so shows other regions and even other countries water qualities, too (wherever the data is available). I prefer the interface to the swimsafe app.
