As part of our Beachwatch program we assess swimming suitability at 1 swimming site in Wamberal Lagoon using microbial indicators. Central Coast Council collect samples at the site weekly between October and April, and monthly from May to September, to calculate the suitability grade. Sampling is ongoing. The grade reflects the most recent 100 water quality results to April 2022. Find out more about how we monitor beach water quality.

Estuarine, lake and lagoon water can sometimes be unsuitable for swimming, especially after rainfall when stormwater and wastewater can overflow into swimming areas. Learn more about what the grades mean and how we grade swimming sites on our beach classification webpage.
