Signs warning swimmers about possible faecal contamination will soon be put up near some of the most photographed beaches in Tasmania — and locals are fearing for their safety and for the tourist industry.

On the outskirts of one of Tasmania's most pristine locations, recreational water users will soon be advised to avoid swimming near two creeks that flow onto popular beaches due to faecal contamination concerns.

He said the signs were going up after public reports about families and children playing at the creek streams.The signs, that are currently being manufactured, are due to be installed in coming weeks and will remain at the creeks permanently. "The creeks can be contaminated with natural pollutants, especially after heavy rainfall," Mr Ingham said.

In a report released last year from the 2018 to 2019 summer, TasWater found "faecal contamination previously detected in Coles Bay coastal regions is likely associated with overflowing septic and sewerage systems during periods of high usage and rainfall during these periods"., the Freycinet Association Incorporated has completed its own independent testing.
