I could not resist and did more poking around the topic of my previous post (The Beach of the Dead, the State Park Full of Shit, aka Woodlawn Beach State Park). It turns out the dirty rating of this beach is official. Fox News, based on NRDC research, published this list of the cleanest and the dirtiest beaches. Citing from the dirty section of their list:
Avalon Beach in Los Angeles County, Calif.
Doheny State Beach in Orange County, Calif.
Winnetka Elder Park Beach in Cook County, Ill.
North Point Marina North Beach in Lake County, Ill.
Constance Beach, Gulf Breeze, Little Florida, Long Beach, and Rutherford beaches in Cameron County, La.
Beachwood Beach West in Ocean County, N.J.
Woodlawn Beach (Woodlawn Beach State Park) in Erie County, N.Y.
Ontario Beach in Monroe County, N.Y.
Euclid State Park and Villa Angela State Park beaches in Cuyahoga County, Ohio
South Shore Beach in Milwaukee County, Wis.
You can also go straight to NRDC's web site and find Woodlawn Beach listed under The Nation's 15 Repeat Offenders.
