It's after 'elevated bacteria' was found in the water there.

Claremont Beach is a popular bathing spot all-year round, not far from Howth Harbour. 

It's one of 10 or more swimming destinations under the watchful eye of Fingal County Council. 

But yesterday, a warning was issued due to "elevated bacteria" in the water there. 

The EPA carried out tests and has subsequently issued a "Do Not Swim" notice. 

Another sample is due to be taken before the end of the week. 

It's believed a high volume of animals and birds contributed to the sample results.
