Worthing Beach House is a well-known coastal bathing water in Worthing, South East, recognized for its coastal terrain. Official water quality sampling at this location currently carries an annual rating of Poor. Designated in 2024, the site is maintained under national environmental monitoring standards.
Sediment type has not yet been recorded for this site. Underfoot conditions and bank composition may vary.
Water quality regularly fails to meet safe bathing standards. Swimmers face an elevated risk of stomach infections or skin rashes due to high bacterial loads.
Bacterial levels are highly susceptible to storm runoff. Heavy rainfall in the local catchment is likely to trigger storm overflows and agricultural runoff, rendering the water temporarily unsafe.
Tested weekly by the Environment Agency England for bacteria levels (E. coli & Intestinal Enterococci) between May and September.
Monitored as a coastal beach. Coastal beaches are subject to tidal flows and marine dilution, whereas inland lakes/rivers suffer from low water circulation, meaning bacteria can linger longer.
Southern Water Services Limited is the regional utility responsible for waste water treatment, sewage infrastructure, and storm overflow management in this catchment area.
Officially designated as a protected bathing water site in 2024. This designation mandates regular public health monitoring.
Governed under local district sanitation and environmental safety regulations in the Worthing area.
