What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Town of Cambridge has not reopened City Beach, City Beach North, and Floreat Beach due to high levels of E.coli recorded in water samples. This closure followed the discovery of a 31-tonne whale carcass at South City Beach on September 28. The town is currently estimating the cost of the cleanup, which early estimates placed between $60,000 and $100,000.
