Quick answers

What is the latest official rating for ANSE PISTOLET?
Not classified for the 2025 bathing season, according to the EEA dataset reported by France. Not classified usually means too few samples, a new or changed site, or a season without a valid assessment.
Has the rating changed recently?
A 2024-to-2025 comparison is not possible because at least one of the two seasons is not classified in the record.
Where do I check whether swimming is allowed today?
Use the national profile linked on this page or baignades.sante.gouv.fr run by Ministry of Health and the Regional Health Agencies (ARS), and follow signs and lifeguard instructions at the water. Temporary bans and pollution alerts are published there, not in the annual EEA class.
When is the bathing season in France?
Set locally (typically mid-June – mid-September at sea, July – August inland). Official sampling and classification only cover the designated bathing season.
