Is the water clean at Val de Lesso?

Val de Lesso sits on a stretch of coast classed as a coastal bathing site, carrying an official EU Bathing Water rating of Not classified for the 2025 season. Under the EU Bathing Water Directive, national authorities test for intestinal enterococci and E. coli through the season and report the results the following spring — the 2025 rating was published in spring 2026, and 2026's won't follow 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 sits in Rovinj, Istria. There's parking about ~170 m from the beach.

Val de Lesso does not yet have enough classified seasons to describe a long-run trend. 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.

That “Not classified” label comes from a full season of official water sampling, not a single test — it's one step on a four-point scale (Excellent, Good, Sufficient, Poor) reassessed once a year. Today's actual conditions can differ from the seasonal average, so for a live snapshot see the “Right now” and 7-day outlook panels above. There are 3 places to eat within a kilometre — Blu is the closest, about ~150 m away.
