Would you be put off by a health warning at your favourite swimming spot?
Around 100 popular swimming locations across the country have been slapped with health warnings for the summer season.
Local councils reported long-term poor water quality due to the presence of algal blooms and high concentrations of sediment in popular swimming spots like Lake Rotorua, Waikanae Beach and Paraparaumu Beach. Other sites have had consistently scored so low that local councils have stopped monitoring them and have instead posted long-term warning signs against swimming there.
Swimmers that ignore signs risk gastrointestinal illnesses and respiratory diseases from water made unsafe by farm runoff, sewage contamination and high bacteria counts.

More heavy vehicles will be rolling between Auckland and Northport for a week from Friday.
About 800 extra trucks are expected to hit the area as they carry 1200 containers from Northport to Auckland.
The receptacles hail from the ship Constantinos P which was diverted to Northport after delays unloading Christmas cargo in Auckland.
Motorists can expect to see up to 12 trucks every hour leaving Northport from 6 am to midnight for a week.
The Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency says people should plan ahead and allow more time for their journey.
