High temperatures on the Polish sea have caused the proliferation of blue-green algae on a scale that has not been observed for many years. It turns out that organisms are the scourge of even sun bathers.

The plague of blue-green algae certainly does not enjoy holidaymakers who have chosen holidays on the Baltic Sea. The magnitude of the phenomenon is very much seen in Friday's images, made by the satellite Copernicus Sentinel.
Due to cyanobacteria, all the bathing beaches of the Tri-City were closed Monday It was only when the current changed that it was possible to dive again in the sea in Sopot and Sobieszewo. Visitors to one of the largest beaches of Gdansk – Stogi – can enjoy the charm of the waves of the sea. It is not said, however, that cyanobacteria will not return to these places. In addition, in many other baths, the situation still does not allow entry into the water

What is a blue-green algae? Cyanobacteria are also self-sustaining organisms capable of surviving in almost all conditions, from rocks to hot springs. Most often, however, they occur in salt-rich seawater and full of impurities deposited by the river flowing into the seas. Although many call cyanobacterial algae, the term is incorrect. These organisms belong to the group of bacteria, but when they are in bloom, they can look like algae (more on cyanobacteria)
