Resources related to Biotoxins and Harmful Algal Blooms
Estuaries can have a mix of both freshwater and marine biotoxins from harmful algal blooms. For freshwater biotoxins, OEHHA recommends that you check the California harmful algal bloom (HAB) portal to see if a bloom has been reported at this water body and learn healthy water habits to protect yourself, your family, and your pets during your visit. For marine biotoxins, check California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Health Advisories for Finfish, Shellfish, and Crustaceans, or call California Department of Public Health’s Shellfish Biotoxin Information Line (800-553-4133) for current advisories and closures.
