Location

Rønnerne and Palmestranden are bathing beaches in Frederikshavn Kommune, Denmark. The bathing water profile extends approximately 900 meters along the coast. Frederikshavn Kommune is responsible for this area, located at Rådhus Alle 100, 9900 Frederikshavn.

Season

1 June to 1 September

Water Quality

Water quality is monitored for the bacteria E. coli and Enterococci throughout the bathing season. Water quality classification is determined based on samples collected over the last 4 seasons and is categorized as excellent, good, satisfactory, or poor. Both bacteria are found in the intestines of humans and warm-blooded animals. Despite excellent water quality classification, bathing is not recommended during and immediately after heavy rainfall.

Risks

Elling å stream has an outlet immediately north of the bathing water profile and may discharge diluted wastewater from overflow structures in Kvissel and Ravnshøj during heavy rainfall. An overflow structure exists south of the bathing profile. Few or no algae are present. No blue-green algae are present.
