Many municipal beaches, outdoor pools, and splashpads are now officially open.
The lion’s share opened Canada Day, though a number had already been open.
Lifeguards will be at most municipal beaches from 11 to 6 every day.
Albro Lake and Kinap beaches are closed to swimmers, the municipality reported high levels of bacteria in the water late in June.
Oakfield Beach won’t be reopening this summer, after reports of illness and death from some kind of algae bloom in Grand Lake.
The Cole Harbour outdoor pool and splashpad doesn’t open until mid-July, and the Halifax Common Pool is closed while it’s assessed for repairs.
Because of ongoing public health restrictions, you must book ahead of time at all pools in Halifax.
