Is the water clean at Plan D'Eau Du Bouloc?

Thinking of swimming at Plan D'Eau Du Bouloc? The short answer: its official EU Bathing Water rating for 2025 is Good — meets the EU bathing-water standard in the latest annual 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, the national environmental authority — publish individual water sample results during the season itself, ahead of the annual report. Water quality here has been improving: the rating moved from Poor to Good in 2025. You can park about ~320 m away.

Over the 11 classified seasons on record, 5 have come back Excellent or Good — a track record worth checking each year rather than assuming. 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. Ceilhes-et-Rocozels — the closest town — sits about ~500 m from here.

Worth remembering: “Good” 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 Hérault. There are 3 places to eat within a kilometre — Café du lac is the closest, about ~60 m away.

Frequently asked questions

Is the water at Plan D'Eau Du Bouloc safe right now?

It's a solid yes: Plan D'Eau Du Bouloc is rated Good for 2025, the second tier on the EU scale, backed by 5 of 11 classified seasons at Excellent or Good. Its rating has also been trending the right way, moving from Poor to Good in 2025.

How warm is the sea at Plan D'Eau Du Bouloc right now?

That reading, around 22°C, is a placeholder rather than a live measurement, shown only because the marine-weather feed was temporarily unreachable; it updates automatically once the feed returns. That's the reading right off Hérault.

Which month has the warmest sea at Plan D'Eau Du Bouloc?

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 Hérault.

What's behind the water quality rating shown above?

National authorities sample the water for intestinal enterococci and E. coli bacteria through the bathing season and report the full-season results to the European Environment Agency each spring for the season just finished, which assigns one of four annual classifications — Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor — under the EU Bathing Water Directive. Some national authorities, including Croatia's IZOR, also publish individual in-season sample results ahead of that annual report.
