Is the water clean at Migennes?
Migennes is a river 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, the national environmental authority — publish individual water sample results during the season itself, ahead of the annual report. On site you'll find Beach bar, Parking, and Sports facilities. There's parking about ~90 m from the beach.
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. Migennes does not yet have enough classified seasons to describe a long-run trend. The nearest town, Laroche-Saint-Cydroine, is about ~1.6 km away.
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 Yonne. There are 8 places to eat within a kilometre — Café du Pont is the closest, about ~180 m away.
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to go in the water at Migennes?
Migennes's official 2025 rating is Not classified, which is why local advisories and posted flags are worth checking before swimming.
What temperature is the sea at Migennes right now?
Treat the ~28°C above as illustrative only — Migennes's live marine feed was down when this page was generated, and the figure will be replaced with a real reading automatically once it's back. That's the reading right off Yonne. On the modeled climatology here, August usually runs warmest.
When is the best time to swim at Migennes?
For the warmest water, aim for July–September — that's when the modeled sea temperature is typically at its best. That applies to the water around Yonne. Within that window, August is typically the single warmest month.
Where does the water quality rating come from?
It's based on official water samples: authorities test for intestinal enterococci and E. coli through the season, then report the full-season results to the European Environment Agency each spring, which assigns one of four grades — Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor. A few national authorities, including Croatia's IZOR, also publish individual samples during the season itself, ahead of that annual report — that isn't yet available for Migennes.
Is there parking near Migennes?
By car, it's easy — parking is right by the beach. There's a bus stop about ~250 m from the beach. The nearest town is Laroche-Saint-Cydroine, about ~1.6 km away.
