Great news. Just remember to be careful if out on the water

Good news - the Exeter Canal is now back open to water users.

However, blue-green algae is still around, so please avoid contact with the water and keep dogs on leads - don’t let them swim or drink from it.

If you do come into contact, wash off with clean water and seek advice if you feel unwell. And just a reminder: swimming isn’t allowed in the canal.
