Stay Out of Warwick City Park Swimming Area And Conimicut Point Beach: RIDOH

WARWICK, RI — Taking a dip in the Warwick City Park swimming area Conimicut Point Beach is probably not a good idea, according to the Rhode Island Department of Health.

RIDOH recommended closing the two areas to swimmers due to high bacteria counts, according to a statement released by the department.

"RIDOH will continue to monitor and review beach water quality through Labor Day," the Department said. "The status of a beach may change as new data become available."
