点评:We had an amazing view of Pocitos beach from an apartment building facing the ocean. This beach is incredible, a constant location for activity and fun. It was exciting to watch people training/playing football, volleyball and running, walking, biking along the beautiful beach. We took full advantage of those activities ourselves. However, Be Careful About Going Into The Water: we encountered a frequent smell of sewer gas. We researched and found from local authorities the following information: "The sewage-like smell at Pocitos Beach in Montevideo is primarily linked to, and acknowledged by authorities as, leaks from the subaquatic outfall (emisario subacuático) that have existed for many years. Elevated levels of fecal bacteria, particularly enterococci and coliforms, have been detected in the water, indicating contamination." We used plastic-backed beach blankets when on the beach. Every morning, there were machines and people cleaning the sand. I hope they can implement measures to stop the contamination of the water. We headed outside the city to other beaches throughout the week.
翻译:我们从面向大海的公寓楼里可以欣赏到波西托斯海滩的壮丽景色。这片海滩令人叹为观止,总是充满活力和乐趣。看着人们在美丽的沙滩上训练/踢足球、打排球、跑步、散步、骑自行车,真是令人兴奋。我们自己也充分利用了这些活动。然而,下水时务必小心:我们经常闻到一股下水道的臭味。我们查阅了相关资料,从当地政府了解到:“蒙得维的亚波西托斯海滩的污水臭味主要与水下排放口(emisario subacuático)的泄漏有关,当局也承认这是多年来一直存在的泄漏造成的。水中检测到了高浓度的粪便细菌,特别是肠球菌和大肠菌群,表明水体受到污染。” 我们在海滩上使用塑料底的沙滩毯。每天早上都有机器和工作人员清理沙滩。我希望他们能够采取措施阻止水体污染。接下来的一周,我们还去了城外的其他海滩。
