Is the water clean at Rio Alcanadre Bierge?
Thinking of swimming at Rio Alcanadre Bierge? The short answer: its official EU Bathing Water rating for 2025 is Good — meets the EU bathing-water standard in the latest annual 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 Good for 3 straight years. You can park about ~120 m away.
Looking to avoid the busiest weeks? The water is typically warmest around August, with the most reliable swimming window running July–September; outside that stretch you'll find a cooler sea but a quieter beach. That rating has been consistent: every one of the 5 classified seasons on record has come back Excellent or Good. On site you'll find Parking. Bierge — the closest town — sits about ~1.4 km from here.
“Good” 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.
Frequently asked questions
Is the water at Rio Alcanadre Bierge safe right now?
It's a solid yes: Rio Alcanadre Bierge is rated Good for 2025, the second tier on the EU scale, backed by 5 of 5 classified seasons at Excellent or Good. It's also held steady at Good for 3 straight years.
Is the sea warm at Rio Alcanadre Bierge today?
That reading, around 27°C, is a placeholder rather than a live measurement, shown only because the marine-weather feed was temporarily unreachable; it updates automatically once the feed returns. That's the reading right off Huesca.
What's the best month to visit Rio Alcanadre Bierge for swimming?
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 Huesca.
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; Rio Alcanadre Bierge doesn't have that feed yet.
Can you drive to Rio Alcanadre Bierge?
By car, it's easy — parking is right by the beach. There's a bus stop about ~1.4 km from the beach. The nearest town is Bierge, about ~1.4 km away.
