As the holiday season continues, hygienists regularly take samples at designated bathing locations and evaluate their quality. To date, five “no swimming” (black symbols) have been registered and five locations have been marked as unsuitable for swimming (red symbols). Water with increased cyanobacteria resurgence poses a health risk to bathing travelers, therefore it is advisable to follow current evaluations and respect warnings from cleaning services. More information about the dangers of cyanobacteria and useful advice can be found here: Cyanobacteria and swimming in nature – SZÚ.
The third level of water quality (orange symbol, when it is recommended for sensitive people to shower after bathing) is currently assessed, for example, Máchovo jezero in Liberec regionRolava v swimming pool Karlovy Vary RegionVýrovice v . water reservoir South Moravian RegionLipno v South Bohemia Region and also the Džbán swimming pool in Prague.
A comprehensive assessment of bath water quality is available at: Water bath (koupacivody.cz) and also on the website of each regional cleaning station.
