Is the water clean at Obalni potez Jasenice?
Thinking of swimming at Obalni potez Jasenice? The short answer: its official EU Bathing Water rating for 2025 is Excellent — the highest official classification under the EU bathing-water assessment. That rating is set once a year under the EU Bathing Water Directive, from a full season of testing for intestinal enterococci and E. coli reported to the European Environment Agency the following spring, so the 2025 season's grade appeared in spring 2026 and the 2026 season won't be graded until spring 2027. In addition to that yearly rating, some national authorities — for Croatia, IZOR (Croatia's Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries) — publish individual water sample results during the season itself, ahead of the annual report. It's been a consistently reliable spot too — the rating has held at Excellent for 11 straight years. You can park about ~940 m away.
That rating has been consistent: every one of the 11 classified seasons on record has come back Excellent or Good. The most reliable swimming window here typically runs from July–September, with the sea usually at its warmest around August. Outside that window the water is cooler and often quieter.
Worth remembering: “Excellent” isn't a live reading, it's an annual grade — Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor — set once a year from that season's water samples and describing the average, not this afternoon's conditions. For what the sea is doing right now, check the “Right now” panel and 7-day outlook above. It sits in Maslenica, Zadar. There are 2 places to eat within a kilometre — Škroćo is the closest, about ~70 m away.

How warm is the sea at Obalni potez Jasenice right now?
That's placeholder data, not a live measurement: Obalni potez Jasenice's marine-weather feed couldn't be reached, so the panel above is showing an estimated ~24°C until the real feed comes back. That's the reading right off Maslenica, Zadar.
