Water

Atlantic Ocean. The bathing areas are influenced by tidal currents and swells of the Atlantic coast. Tidal range and hydrodynamic conditions are documented for the Mor bras area.

Location

Quiberon, a municipality in Brittany, France. The bathing zones are located in Goviro, Conguel, Porigo, and Castero areas of the Quiberon peninsula.

Water Quality

Bacteriological quality monitoring was conducted by ARS (Regional Health Authority). Water quality assessment included evaluation of macro-algae and phytoplankton proliferation potential. Monitoring results and bacteriological analyses are detailed in the document.

Risks

Potential pollution sources identified include collective wastewater discharge, non-collective sanitation systems, stormwater networks, diffuse pollution, and accidental or sporadic pollution. Macro-algae and phytoplankton proliferation potential is assessed as a risk factor.
