    Off the top of my head I think it's generally advised to wait about two weeks ideally.

    Plus some of the beaches have swim alerts because of water pollution which you’d never guess as there were no signs up and lifegaurds still on - unless you looked on some
    obscure website to find out by beach alphabetical name - it was on the radio the other day - those with cuts, low immune systems and pregnamt women were advised on this obscure website to specificaLly not go into the water. I guess tatoos would be in the same bracket?
