Is the water clean at Plan D'Eau Du Pont Cornouaille?

Plan D'Eau Du Pont Cornouaille sits on a stretch of coast classed as a lake bathing site, carrying an official EU Bathing Water rating of Excellent 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, the national environmental authority — publish individual water sample results during the season itself, ahead of the annual report. It sits in Loire-Atlantique. There's parking about ~40 m from the beach.

That rating has been consistent: every one of the 6 classified seasons on record has come back Excellent or Good. The most reliable swimming window here typically runs from July–September, with the water usually at its warmest around August. Outside that window it's cooler and often quieter. It's been a consistently reliable spot too — the rating has held at Excellent for 6 straight years. The nearest town, Mésanger, is about ~700 m away.

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. There's 1 place to eat near the beach — Le Relais, about ~710 m away.
