Is the water clean at Sainte Livrade?

Sainte Livrade sits on a stretch of coast classed as a river bathing site, carrying an official EU Bathing Water rating of Good 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 Lot-et-Garonne. There's parking about ~200 m from the beach.

Over the 7 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 water usually at its warmest around August. Outside that window it's cooler and often quieter. Water quality here has been improving: the rating moved from Sufficient to Good in 2025. The nearest town, Sainte-Livrade-sur-Lot, is about ~500 m away.

That “Good” 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 8 places to eat within a kilometre — Domaine de BUGATEL is the closest, about ~470 m away.
