Is the water clean at Uvala Porat-sidrište?
Uvala Porat-sidrište is a coastal bathing site with an official EU Bathing Water rating of Not classified for the 2025 season — not enough samples in this year to assign an official rating. That annual classification comes from the EU Bathing Water Directive: national authorities test for two indicator bacteria, intestinal enterococci and E. coli, throughout the bathing season, then report the full-season results to the European Environment Agency (EEA) the following spring — the 2025 season's rating was published in spring 2026, and the 2026 season won't be rated 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. On site you'll find Restaurant and Anchorage.
Looking to avoid the busiest weeks? The water is typically warmest around August, with the most reliable swimming window running July–September; outside that stretch you'll find a cooler sea but a quieter beach. Uvala Porat-sidrište does not yet have enough classified seasons to describe a long-run trend.
Worth remembering: “Not classified” 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 Zavala, Split-Dalmatia. There are 3 places to eat within a kilometre — Restaurant Kod Ive - Šćedro is the closest, about ~210 m away.
