The long view

The state has 1,308 tests on record for Cape Florida Park over 27 years, starting August 2000. In the last 10 years, 16 tests of 504 (3%) came back Poor, below the rate for all Florida sampled beaches (6.1%). Bacteria levels usually jump after heavy rain, when stormwater washes to the shore, and drop again within a day or two.
