Is the water clean at Playa D'Albercuix( Port de Pollen?a)?

Thinking of swimming at Playa D'Albercuix( Port de Pollen?a)? The short answer: its official EU Bathing Water rating for 2025 is Poor — below the EU standard; swimming may be discouraged or restricted by local authorities. 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 Poor for 2 straight years. There's parking about ~190 m from the beach.

Over the 11 classified seasons on record, 2 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. Water quality here is tracked across 2 separate monitoring points along the shoreline. The nearest town, Port de Pollença, is about ~300 m away.

“Poor” 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. There are 44 places to eat within a kilometre — Can Pescador is the closest, about ~70 m away.
