Saltwater State Park is open for water contact recreation
Public Health - Seattle & King County has lifted the no-water-contact advisory at Saltwater State Park in King County. This advisory was issued due to a sewage spill in September. Water sample results now show there is no longer a public health risk.
Contact with fecal-contaminated waters can result in gastroenteritis, skin rashes, upper respiratory infections, and other illnesses. Children and the elderly may be more vulnerable to waterborne illnesses.
