The update comes after an Oct. 8 water sample showed that levels of enterococci bacterias had dropped back to a "good" range.

John DeVone was swimming Saturday morning off the 8th Avenue beach when he disappeared beneath the waves, police said.

Palm Beach officials say the no-swim advisory will stand until the levels of enterococci bacteria return to a normal level.

Officials are advising the public to avoid all water-related activities at Crandon Park North and South Point Drive Beach (South Beach Park) due to the heightened presence of Enterococcus bacteria.
