Is the water clean at Anse de Guerledan?

Anse de Guerledan is a lake bathing site with an official EU Bathing Water rating of Excellent for the 2025 season — the highest official classification under the EU bathing-water assessment. 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, the national environmental authority — publish individual water sample results during the season itself, ahead of the annual report. On site you'll find Sandy shore, Toilets, and Parking. You can park about ~130 m away.

That rating has been consistent: every one of the 10 classified seasons on record has come back Excellent or Good. If you're timing a visit around water temperature rather than crowds, July–September is the safest bet, with August typically the peak — expect a cooler, calmer sea either side of that stretch. Saint-Aignan — the closest town — sits about ~1.7 km from here.

That “Excellent” 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. It's been a consistently reliable spot too — the rating has held at Excellent for 10 straight years.

Frequently asked questions

Is the water at Anse de Guerledan safe right now?

Generally, yes. Anse de Guerledan's 2025 EU Bathing Water rating is Excellent — the highest tier — backed by 10 of 10 classified seasons rated Excellent or Good. It's also held steady at Excellent for 10 straight years.

Is the sea warm at Anse de Guerledan today?

The panel above shows a sample value of around 27°C. This is placeholder data shown because a live marine-weather feed wasn't reachable — it will be replaced automatically once the feed is available. That's the reading right off Côtes-d'Armor.

What's the ideal time of year to swim at Anse de Guerledan?

July–September tends to be the sweet spot for swimming here, with sea temperatures usually peaking later in that stretch. That applies to the water around Côtes-d'Armor.

How is the water quality rating measured?

The grade comes from a full season of official sampling for intestinal enterococci and E. coli, reported to the European Environment Agency each spring under the EU Bathing Water Directive, which assigns Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor. Some countries (Croatia, via IZOR) also publish individual in-season samples ahead of that report; Anse de Guerledan doesn't have that feed yet.

How do I get to Anse de Guerledan without a car?

By car, it's easy — parking is right by the beach. The nearest town is Saint-Aignan, about ~1.7 km away.
