A charity has issued a warning over 25 beach and seafront destinations in Wales which have been polluted by storm sewage or given a poor water classification. Surfers Against Sewage, one of the UK's most successful marine conservation and campaigning charities, has published the alerts on its website.

It writes that there is an issue concerning storm sewage within the last 48 hours in the areas of Colwyn Bay, Llyn Padarn, Criccieth, New Quay, Llangrannog, Cilborth, Newport, Nolton Haven, Little Haven, Broadhaven, Dale, West Angle, Barafundle, Manorbier, Tenby, Saundersfoot, Pembrey, Swansea and Ogmore.

The charity explained how sewage pollution was "everything we flush down the loo or wash down the drain that is released into the environment through sewer overflows, or that washes off the land and roads."
