Is the water clean at Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel?

Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel is a lake bathing site with an official EU Bathing Water rating of Not classified for the 2025 season — not enough samples in this year to assign an official rating. 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 Showers, Toilets, and Restaurant. You can park about ~330 m away.

That rating has been consistent: every one of the 6 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. Ruidera — the closest town — sits about ~5.3 km from here.

Worth remembering: “Not classified” 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. For what the sea is doing right now, check the “Right now” panel and 7-day outlook above. It sits in Albacete. There are 4 places to eat within a kilometre — Restaurante Moreno is the closest, about ~50 m away.

Is the water at Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel safe right now?

This one calls for caution — Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel's 2025 rating is Not classified. Look for posted flags and local advisories before you go in.

How cold or warm is the water at Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel today?

That's placeholder data, not a live measurement: Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel's marine-weather feed couldn't be reached, so the panel above is showing an estimated ~28°C until the real feed comes back. That's the reading right off Albacete.

Which month has the warmest sea at Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel?

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

What does the water quality rating actually measure?

The annual classification — Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor — is built from a full season of official testing for intestinal enterococci and E. coli, reported to the European Environment Agency each spring. Some national authorities (Croatia's IZOR among them) also publish individual samples during the season itself; Laguna la Redondilla Ossa de Montiel isn't yet covered by that in-season feed.
