We’re #1! We’re #1!

Here’s another reason to love M Street Beach (And it’s not because of the beautiful people that go there!)

According to Save the Harbor/Save the Bay water quality report, South Boston for the fourth year in a row has the cleanest beaches in the Boston area! M Street Beach has received high marks in having water that is safe to swim in and for passing 100% of their bacteria tests last summer.

Topping the list is M Street Beach, Carson, followed by Nantasket (South Shore), then City Point and Pleasure Bay!

Here’s the report card below:

    Interesting. I would love to know the water quality relative to other non-Boston beaches, like compared to the Cape or Miami for instance.

    After all, these are “bacteria tests”, not all encompassing water quality reports.

    I was there with my family when all of a sudden a dead fish washed up ashore. My son touched it with his hands and his entire face was covered in fish goo. We sent him to the doctor to get antibiotics. L street beach isn’t as clean as it looks. Although I do love the beach and atmosphere :)
