Is the water clean at Akti Kampou?
Thinking of swimming at Akti Kampou? The short answer: its official EU Bathing Water rating for 2025 is Excellent — the highest official classification under the EU bathing-water 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. It's been a consistently reliable spot too — the rating has held at Excellent for 11 straight years. You can park about ~780 m away.
That rating has been consistent: every one of the 11 classified seasons on record has come back Excellent or Good. 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. Votsalakia — the closest town — sits about ~500 m from here.
Worth remembering: “Excellent” 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 North Aegean. There are 23 places to eat within a kilometre — Ακρογιαλι is the closest, about ~80 m away.
Frequently asked questions

Generally, yes. Akti Kampou's 2025 EU Bathing Water rating is Excellent — the highest tier — backed by 11 of 11 classified seasons rated Excellent or Good. It's also held steady at Excellent for 11 straight years.
Is the sea warm at Akti Kampou today?
That's placeholder data, not a live measurement: Akti Kampou's marine-weather feed couldn't be reached, so the panel above is showing an estimated ~24°C until the real feed comes back. That's the reading right off North Aegean.
What's the ideal time of year to swim at Akti Kampou?
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 North Aegean.
What's behind the water quality rating shown above?
The annual classification — Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor — is built from a full season of official testing for intestinal enterococci and E. coli, reported to the European Environment Agency each spring. Some national authorities (Croatia's IZOR among them) also publish individual samples during the season itself; Akti Kampou isn't yet covered by that in-season feed.
How do you get to Akti Kampou?
By car, there's parking about ~780 m from the beach. There's a bus stop about ~840 m from the beach. The nearest town is Votsalakia, about ~500 m away.
