July 28, 2018 - The Hampton Health Department on Saturday lifted the swimming advisory for Buckroe Beach. Bacteria levels returned to normal. 

Recreational waters are routinely monitored during the summer swimming season. Four beaches in Newport News and two beaches in Virginia Beach are also under swimming advisories. People swimming or playing in waters with higher than normal bacteria levels have an increased risk of developing gastrointestinal illnesses.
