Malta's Environmental Health Directorate advises against swimming in St Paul's Bay due to potential water contamination, posing health risks to bathers. Signs have been placed in the affected area, and they will be removed once water quality is confirmed. This follows other beach closures due to contaminated water, with incidents such as Balluta Bay's closure in May due to E. coli and Enterococci contamination.
