Is the water clean at Piazza Matteotti?
Piazza Matteotti is a coastal bathing site with an official EU Bathing Water rating of Good for the 2025 season — meets the EU bathing-water standard in the latest annual 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. On site you'll find Beach bar, Restaurant, and Sports facilities. You can park about ~360 m away.
That rating has been consistent: every one of the 11 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. Lido di Camaiore — the closest town — sits about ~400 m from here.
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. Worth noting: the rating slipped from Excellent to Good in 2025, so it's especially worth checking the latest local advisories. There are 12 places to eat within a kilometre — Pontile is the closest, about ~130 m away.

Which month has the warmest sea at Piazza Matteotti?

What does the water quality rating actually measure?
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; Piazza Matteotti doesn't have that feed yet.

By car, there's parking about ~360 m from the beach. There's a bus stop about ~270 m from the beach. The nearest town is Lido di Camaiore, about ~400 m away.
