The authorities have warned against swimming in St Julian's opposite Wilga Street - which is just off the Dragonara.

"Bathing is not recommended due to the presence of microbiological contamination affecting bathing water quality and presenting a risk to bathers’ health at Wilġa Street, St Julian’s - from near the Sewage Ejector," the environmental health directorate said.

The issue is being investigated.
