Health Department warns swimmers not to enter the water at Mother's Beach in Marina del Rey.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health indicated on Wednesday that swimmers should avoid a stretch of a Marina del Rey Beach due to high bacteria levels in the water.

The health department said that current bacteria levels in the water at the beach do not meet state bacteriological standards. Warning signs have been posted in the area to warn swimmers not to enter the water.
