UK's DIRTIEST BEACH is in CORNWALL! - is South West Water (SWW) to blame? We were shocked!

One of our beautiful local beaches had been named as the DIRTIEST BEACH for swimming in the UK. We were shocked!
We wanted to take a look for ourselves and, with feet on the ground, find some answers and any evidence of the problem. Is this award deserved? With sky high water charges, why have we got one of the dirtiest beaches? Is South West Water to blame? Has anything been done to remedy the situation?
Join us as we explore the area and you may be shocked by the outcome!
The standard description bit…
We are Sarah and Andrew and we film around Cornwall and publish on KZread, usually weekly. Sometimes we stay in accommodation in Cornwall and upload our vlog. Sarah is fascinated by sea glass and likes to collect it so there may be the occasional sea glass video too. The channel is a hobby and we both have normal day jobs!
Unfortunately we cannot answer comments coming in more than a week after the publishing date of the video.
Frequently asked questions:
Do we do meet ups?
We regularly receive requests to meet up from viewers and subscribers, but unfortunately we do not have availability to be able to do this.
The channel is a very time consuming hobby, fitted around our employment and family commitments. Setting aside time for meet ups, means that we are not able to film and edit our weekly videos that you love to watch.
If you happen to bump into us while out and about, we will be more than happy to have a quick chat!
Sarah and Andrew
What camera do we use?
Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII
How do I find the books you use?
Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book title. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.
Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.
What is your dog’s name?
Sorry but we do not release the name of our dogs, perhaps you can make up your own name for them.

    There are several reasons why so many beaches are such an appalling state. A) The privatised water companies are more interested in rewarding their shareholders than investing in facilities to treat sewage. They discharge millions of litres of untreated sewage into rivers, lakes and seas each year, little wonder so many of our beaches, rivers and lakes are in such an appalling state; B) Ofwat fail to do their job properly; probably due to underfunding. C) The Environment Agency do not have enough staff to manage our environment. Fewer and fewer staff are having to cope with massively increasing workloads. I’m afraid it’s symptomatic of the decline that has taken place in the UK over the past couple of decades. We really must start holding the directors of these companies personally liable and prosecute them. When companies are fined all they do is pass on the cost of that to customers. Animal poo is, of course, a problem, but that’s again about lack of enforcement. If we want decent public health services then we have to be prepared to fund them properly.

I dont recall sheep producing brown cigars, which float past the boat. I'm not surprised that farms have been blamed as there is a constant attack on farming.

    Such a brilliant CWT investigation! It wouldn't have occur to me increases in rain/run-off water in recent years from farm ruminants was the cause. So really it's natural farmland drainage into the stream leading into the cove that's bringing in the contamination. The only way to reduce the problem would be to restrict animal numbers on coastal farms or have a water-treatment (purification) plant interrupting the stream ahead of the cove, both solutions beset with problems of implemenation I guess. Yes. totally agree, there should be clear notices on the beach itself advising against bathing (not a poo sign though!). BTW, Porth Luney beach is still stunningly beautiful! :)

The sewage treatment plant wasn't cheap, but it keeps the forest and the environment clean. There are also larger plants like this for small villages, the only disadvantage is that they sometimes smell a bit strong. The investment would quickly pay for itself with the number of tourists.

    There is a problem in the UK with broken underground sewerage pipes. One of the ideas behind privatisation was that the companies would replace these pipes. This never happened. The leakages from these broken pipes go into the ground and seep down into the rivers. Thus explaining the rise in the summer months when tourist numbers increase.

    If the sea water quality was good in 2019, then something has changed since then, surely ? Are the farmers, or the estate itself, grazing more ruminants in that area ? If more animals are now being grazed than the local terrain can support surely the responsibility must lie with those putting the extra animals on the land ? I don't mean to bash the farmers (sorry farmers) but the responsibility for the deterioration in water quality must lie somewhere. Let's be honest Britain has always had rainy weather so it can't be that - can it ?

And still do. Post WW2 there was a massive property development to these areas as people retired to the coast. This pressure is ceaseless as more move to the coast to WFH. Geographically it is not feasible to hook these sewer pipes to a network sewerage treatment plant. So it all goes into the sea.

    Hmmm. I am not so sure its that simple. Half the beaches of Devon and Cornwall are at the end of a Combe or valley with a stream feeding onto the beach. The West Country has always had a high precipitation - nothing changed there. Animals have been farmed on the land with their excrement fertilizing the soil, since long before anyone had the idea of 'beach culture/Holidays.....pretty much the Victorians 'invented' sitting on beaches as a pastime and swimming in the sea. So why the problem now? My suspicion is that either there is slurry pit leaching into the river further upstream, or the septic tank isn't maintained at the public toilets....or worse, the local water company is up to something, further away still. I have heard many stories of dogs getting sick after drinking freshwater in streams heading onto the beach....on many Blue Beaches too!

    Well thats filth and down to the owners! Caerhays get yer finger out and clean-up, I am sure you charge enough money to visit, you must have bad plumbing/ sewage output? Surely an estate such as Caerhays could infiltrate a natural reed bed set-up to take the impure and make it pure? They should be able to afford it or buy chemical loo's which are very cheap! I feel nauseous looking at the beach and such a shame when its stunningly beautiful as is Caerhays! If its animal waste the same applies...

    Flushed has several meanings. It can mean excited or elated by something, e.g. “flushed with success, I was getting into my stride", so flushed means excited. Also flushed relates to a toilet. A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word. Therefore not being ‘flushed with the news’ is a pun. Cheers Andrew

    Lobbying, allowing companies to send someone to the parliament or pay a politician to change a law to suite them. Perfectly legal. Government allowing water companies to do this, saves them millions.

    Hi Sarah and Andrew, There is one way they could stop is for people to stop eating meat and become vegetarians or the farmers put catchment ditches, Here in Kent, where i live, there is a sewage farm and in heavy rain it overflows in to the and notices go up telling people not to go in the sea and it stinks 💩very interesting video thanks.

    Can you imagine how lifeless the countryside would look with no livestock grazing in the fields? No farmer is going to keep them as 'pets' with all the associated cost and worry....not to mention the 24/7 care and maintenance!

    The fields would then be used for growing vegetables and cereal crops and the subsequent glyphosates and other sprays which are generally chemical based, leaching into the water systems .

    Both my siblings are vegan and they do (understandably) eat a lot of imported avocados as a substitute for egg, which take up a significant amount of water to grow. But I suppose that’s the ecological equivalent of pooing in someone else’s backyard rather than ours.
