MYFOXNY.COM -

The Nassau County Department of Health said all North Shore beaches are currently open with the exception of the Biltmore Beach Club in Massapequa. 

Biltmore Beach remains closed to bathing due to elevated bacterial levels.

Officials say storm water runoff can have a negative impact by elevating bacterial levels and affecting bathing water quality. 

To speak with a Health Department representative, weekdays, 9:00 A.M. - 4:45 P.M., call 516-227-9717. 

For up-to-date recorded information on beach closings and openings, call 516-227-9700.
