Miami Beach in Baltimore Open After 7 Years
So now that the weather’s starting to get warmer, there’s lots of public places in Maryland to go swimming. A couple parks in the Baltimore area include Oregon Ridge Park and Rocky Point Park. Another is Miami Beach Park, which just reopened after 7 years of being closed.
This is funny considering I used to go to these parks a couple times a week one particular summer only to hear on the news at the end of the season, the water was polluted.
It took Miami Beach, shut down due to a high level of bacteria, 7 years to reopen since it was shut down. Now the water has been deemed safe for swimming and it opened this past Saturday. To visit, it’s open Saturdays as well as Friday through Monday after June 13.
