What kind of beach is this?
This beach belongs to a small coastal village. It's usually calmer than a resort or town beach, though a popular village spot can still fill up on the best summer days.

Is the water clean at Pisses?
Pisses is a coastal bathing site with an official EU Bathing Water rating of Excellent for the 2025 season — the highest official classification under the EU bathing-water assessment. 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.
That rating has been consistent: every one of the 9 classified seasons on record has come back Excellent or Good. If you're timing a visit around water temperature rather than crowds, July–September is the safest bet, with August typically the peak — expect a cooler, calmer sea either side of that stretch. Κορησσία — the closest town — sits about ~7.1 km from here.
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. It's been a consistently reliable spot too — the rating has held at Excellent for 9 straight years.
Frequently asked questions
Is the water at Pisses safe right now?
Yes. Its official 2025 EU Bathing Water rating is Excellent, the top classification, and 9 of the 9 classified seasons on record have rated Excellent or Good. It's also held steady at Excellent for 9 straight years.
How cold or warm is the water at Pisses today?
The panel above shows a sample value of around 25°C. This is placeholder data shown because a live marine-weather feed wasn't reachable — it will be replaced automatically once the feed is available. That's the reading right off South Aegean.
What's the ideal time of year to swim at Pisses?
July–September is typically the most reliable swimming window, with the sea usually warmest in the second half of summer. That applies to the water around South Aegean.
What's behind the water quality rating shown above?
The grade comes from a full season of official sampling for intestinal enterococci and E. coli, reported to the European Environment Agency each spring under the EU Bathing Water Directive, which assigns Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor. Some countries (Croatia, via IZOR) also publish individual in-season samples ahead of that report; Pisses doesn't have that feed yet.
How do you get to Pisses?
There's no parking mapped within 1.5 km of Pisses, so plan on a walk, or arrive early once it gets busy. The nearest town is Κορησσία, about ~7.1 km away.
