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.
Estimated from OpenStreetMap surroundings data (ODbL).
Is the water clean at Depuratore Caprileone?
Depuratore Caprileone sits on a stretch of coast classed as a coastal bathing site, carrying an official EU Bathing Water rating of Sufficient 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. There's parking about ~130 m from the beach.
Over the 11 classified seasons on record, 7 have come back Excellent or Good — a track record worth checking each year rather than assuming. 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. The nearest town, Rocca di Capri Leone, is about ~1.6 km away.
“Sufficient” is one point on a four-step scale — Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor — assigned once per year from that season's water samples, not a live reading. It describes how the site performs on average across the season, not the exact water quality this afternoon; for day-to-day sea conditions, see the “Right now” and 7-day outlook panels above.
Frequently asked questions
Is Depuratore Caprileone safe to swim in?
Yes, with some caution — Depuratore Caprileone's official 2025 rating is Sufficient, the lowest classification that still passes; check for local advisories before you swim.
What temperature is the sea at Depuratore Caprileone right now?
Treat the ~22°C above as illustrative only — Depuratore Caprileone's live marine feed was down when this page was generated, and the figure will be replaced with a real reading automatically once it's back. On the modeled climatology here, August usually runs warmest.
When is the best time to swim at Depuratore Caprileone?
For the warmest water, aim for July–September — that's when the modeled sea temperature is typically at its best. Within that window, August is typically the single warmest month.
Who measures the water quality rating, and how?
It's based on official water samples: authorities test for intestinal enterococci and E. coli through the season, then report the full-season results to the European Environment Agency each spring, which assigns one of four grades — Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor. A few national authorities, including Croatia's IZOR, also publish individual samples during the season itself, ahead of that annual report — that isn't yet available for Depuratore Caprileone.
What's the easiest way to reach Depuratore Caprileone?
By car, it's easy — parking is right by the beach. The nearest town is Rocca di Capri Leone, about ~1.6 km away.
