Porsliogan beach is a bathing water zone located in the municipality of Le Conquet in Brittany, France. The beach profile study examined water quality, pollution sources, and environmental conditions affecting the bathing area. Microbiological monitoring has been conducted since 1994, tracking concentrations of E. coli and enterococci. The beach is subject to tidal influences and rainfall events that affect water quality. Management measures and recommendations have been developed to prevent and mitigate pollution risks.

Water

Coastal marine water body. Tidal influences include both neap tide and spring tide conditions. Current velocities vary with tidal cycles. Significant wave heights depend on swell direction and wind conditions.

Location

Le Conquet municipality, Brittany, France. Porsliogan beach is situated in this coastal area with proximity to Lampaul-Plouarzel.

Water Quality

Microbiological water quality monitoring conducted from 1994 to 2010. E. coli and enterococci concentrations tracked using 90th and 95th percentile calculations. Water quality is influenced by rainfall events and tidal conditions. Seasonal temperature variations observed, with measurements conducted by the Regional Health Agency.

Risks

Microbiological contamination from fecal bacteria sources. Rainfall events increase E. coli and enterococci concentrations. Tidal influences affect water quality. Potential pollution sources identified within the study area watershed.
