Los Angeles County Beach Report Card

The interactive map is a water quality report for beaches in dry weather from the past 30 days compiled from data courtesy of Heal the Bay, a nonprofit environmental group. Beach grades are based on an A+ to F scale. Grades indicate the likelihood of swimmers becoming ill. Water samples are analyzed for bacteria – enterococcus, total and fecal coliforms. The report does not measure the amount of trash or toxins found at local beaches. 

Dark Blue Marker = A+ 

Light Blue Marker = A 

Green Marker = B 

Yellow Marker = C 

Pink = D 

Red Marker = F 

Purple Marker = No sample taken
