The assessment inspects water suitability for bathing, focusing on monitoring bacteria which can cause potentially serious illnesses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, over 22,000 bathing water sites across all 27 EU Member States, plus Albania and Switzerland were assessed. In five countries \u2014 Cyprus, Bulgaria, Greece, Austria and Croatia \u2014 95% or more of bathing waters were of excellent quality. Only 1.5% of the EU&#8217;s bathing waters were found to be of poor quality.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The quality of coastal bathing waters is generally better than that of rivers and lakes. In 2024, around 89% of coastal bathing waters in the EU were classified as excellent, compared with 78% of inland bathing waters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Steady improvements over recent decades<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bathing water quality in Europe has improved markedly over recent decades largely thanks to EU legislation. The combined effect of systematic bacteriological monitoring pursuant to the EU&#8217;s Bathing Water Directive and large investments in urban wastewater treatment plants led to a drastic reduction in pathogens that were previously being released. Thanks to these continued efforts, bathing is now also possible in many urban areas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While most of Europe&#8217;s bathing waters are in excellent condition from a bacteriological perspective, chemical pollution of surface and groundwaters remains significant and may be exacerbated by the changing climate. Improving water resilience for people and for the environment is therefore crucial.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Other challenges to water quality like toxic cyanobacterial blooms, which are not part of monitoring prescribed by EU bathing water rules, frequently result in bathing warnings and restrictions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Background<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall water quality is monitored and assessed under the EU&#8217;s Water Framework Directive and covers a broad spectrum of chemical pollutants in surface and groundwater. Chemical pollutants are not covered by bathing water monitoring even when they exceed legal thresholds that are in place to prevent environmental damage.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The assessment for today&#8217;s briefing is based on the monitoring of bathing sites across Europe that were reported to the EEA for the 2024 season. This includes sites in all EU Member States, Albania and Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Alongside this year&#8217;s Bathing Water Briefing, the EEA has also released an updated interactive map showing the performance of each bathing site. Updated country fact sheets are also available, as well as more information on the implementation of the Directive in assessed countries.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>More information: <a href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/commission\/presscorner\/detail\/en\/ip_25_1574\">European Commission.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Europe&#8217;s coastal waters to its inland bathing sites, a large majority of Europe&#8217;s waters are safe to swim in, according to the latest European bathing water assessment for the 2024 bathing season, published today.
