Is the water clean at In Direzione Fosso Acquarolo?
In Direzione Fosso Acquarolo sits on a stretch of coast classed as a coastal 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. There's parking about ~410 m from the beach.
Over the 11 classified seasons on record, 10 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 sea usually at its warmest around August. Outside that window the water is cooler and often quieter. It's been a consistently reliable spot too — the rating has held at Good for 3 straight years. The nearest town, Porto Recanati, is about ~2.5 km 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 2 places to eat within a kilometre — Il Vascello is the closest, about ~100 m away.
