Moderate slopes predominantly occupied by natural spaces are located upstream of the bathing zone. The beach is subject to easterly winds and northern currents.

Water Quality

Water quality is classified as Type 1 profile, indicating quality that is sufficient, good, or excellent according to Directive 2006/7/CE based on simulation of sanitary control results from the four previous bathing seasons. Identified potential microbiological pollution sources include wastewater discharge from the restaurant 'Bleu Ocean' and the Cosmy pumping station.

Risks

The bathing zone is vulnerable to runoff due to impermeable soil type and steep slopes. Intense rainfall favours bacterial survival and transport to the bathing area. Easterly winds may retain pollutants at the beach. Wastewater discharge from the restaurant 'Bleu Ocean' directed toward the bathing zone has been identified as a potential pollution source.
