According to the report on balneological suitability published by the Environmental Administration Department (Sudema) this Friday (the 23rd), there is only one section of the beach on the coast of Paraíba that is not suitable for swimming.
This section is located in the city of João Pessoa. The report was compiled based on samples taken between October 19 and 22 and remains valid until October 30, the date of the next report's publication.
According to the environmental agency, the classification as unsuitable for swimming applies exclusively to a strip 100 meters wide to the left and right of the sampling point. Outside this zone, the beaches remain open for swimming until new data indicates a change in water quality.
