Swimming at the Noord Aa: this is the quality of the water

Whether you just want to put your feet in the water, or just want to make a bomb: on the North Aa is that possible! What is the current state of the water quality?

According to swimmingwater.nl the water quality of the Zoetermeerse Plas is rated good to excellent at the time of writing. The water has recently been checked, according to the site. The checks have been at three places: at the Noord Aa swimming beachat the play pond and at it Nudist beach.

The website swimmingwater.nl is a collaboration of Rijkswaterstaat, Union of Water Boards, Bij12 and Interprovencial Consultation. If you have any questions or complaints about the bathing water, you can call the bathing water telephone. For the province of South Holland you can call 0800-9036.

Just splash

According to the advice, you can swim in the water at the North Aa. This advice may change in the near future, because the quality of the water is regularly tested according to swimmingwater.nl.
For example, the persistent heat may cause blue-green algae to form in the water. As soon as that happens, the swimming advice becomes negative. Fortunately, that is not yet the case, so splash on!

Negative swimming advice

A swimming spot receives a negative bathing advice if the quality of the bathing water does not meet the correct requirements of the government. But are you obligated to follow that advice? The answer is no. If you still want to swim in that water despite the advice, you can. If a general swimming ban has been imposed, it is forbidden to enter the water. This happens if the risk of getting really sick is very high. You can read more about that here.
