Salinas River: toxic algae advisories
Salinas River, Monterey County. See all Monterey County waters.
What the state's records say
Reports on file, with no advisory level the state has classified.
That reflects what the state knew on that date. It is not a finding that the water is safe now: blooms can return within days, and many are never reported.
Before you go, check the state's official algae page and any signs posted at the water.
