The shock scene unfolded at Cemaes Bay on the north coast of Anglesey in Wales this week.
A number of dead fish were spotted in the beach's waters which prompted the Isle of Anglesey Council to issue a warning.
"Staff are onsite investigating what we believe to be a slurry incident which could affect bathing water quality in the short term and has resulted in a number of dead fish," an earlier statement read.
"Isle of Anglesey County Council is advising against bathing at Cemaes Beach for up to 72 hours from the incident and signage has been put in place to warn members of the public."
A spokesman for Natural Resources Wales also confirmed the cause of the agricultural pollution has been identified.
