Description
This is the second time we have become ill after swimming at this beach. It looks clean and well-maintenanced. However, both of us felt we had sore throats a few hours after we returned home. We figured it was just the salt.

However, this is the second time it has happened. It has been almost a week. We have had diarrhea, vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, coughing, sore throats (loss of voice), and mid-grade fevers.
