Even though the sun shines on our days for most of the year, sometimes our blue skies turn into storms, or outdoor pollution pollutes our crystal-clear waters. When this happens, it often results in a swimming ban on some of the town's beaches.


Everything's great around here! No ban to report.


⚡️ Good to know : generally speaking, avoid swimming during a thunderstorm. In the middle of the water, you could be lightning's favorite antenna!
