Water Quality

Bacteriological monitoring has been conducted by the regional health authority (ARS) from 2008 to 2019. The profile identifies fecal bacteria contamination as a concern, with water quality varying in relation to rainfall.

Risks

Algae bloom sensitivity (green algae strandings) is documented. Jellyfish (physalies) have been observed washed ashore in the region. Short-term contamination episodes occur, particularly following rainfall events.
