Season

Monitoring occurs during the bathing season. Quality assessment is conducted annually after the bathing season ends, based on measurements from the current season and the three preceding seasons.

Water Quality

Water quality classification is based on statistical evaluation of measurements over four-year periods using the 95-percentile method, resulting in ratings of excellent, good, adequate, or poor. 2025 monitoring results show all measurements as bacteriologically unobjectionable. Enterococci levels ranged from <10 to 10 MPN/100ml. Escherichia coli levels ranged from <10 to 10 MPN/100ml. Water temperatures ranged from 15.4°C to 24.2°C across measurement dates from April to September 2025.

Risks

Bathing prohibition may be issued if faecal contamination is detected, if Escherichia coli exceeds 1,800 CFU/100ml or Intestinal Enterococci exceed 700 CFU/100ml in a single measurement confirmed by retest, or if algae concentrations present a health hazard.
