Is the water clean at Ristorante Bussola?

Thinking of swimming at Ristorante Bussola? 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.

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. Marta — the closest town — sits about ~3.2 km 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.

Frequently asked questions

Is Ristorante Bussola a safe beach for swimming?

Generally, yes. Ristorante Bussola'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 Ristorante Bussola today?

That's placeholder data, not a live measurement: Ristorante Bussola's marine-weather feed couldn't be reached, so the panel above is showing an estimated ~26°C until the real feed comes back.

Which month has the warmest sea at Ristorante Bussola?

July–September tends to be the sweet spot for swimming here, with sea temperatures usually peaking later in that stretch.

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; Ristorante Bussola doesn't have that feed yet.

How do I get to Ristorante Bussola without a car?

There's no parking mapped within 1.5 km of Ristorante Bussola, so plan on a walk, or arrive early once it gets busy. The nearest town is Marta, about ~3.2 km away.
