Swimming is prohibited in the Gulf of Pevero, in the stretch of sea between Golfo Pero and Muntiggiu.

The ordinance prohibiting bathing was issued by the Municipality of Arzachena , after, as stated in the provision, the Sassari Department of ARPAS (Regional Agency for Environmental Protection of Sardinia) reported "abnormal" values for Escherichia coli and intestinal enterococci.

Hence the municipal ordinance, "taken into account the potential existence of public health risks, which requires the urgent adoption of measures to delimit areas prohibited to bathing, which could likely have a negative impact on the health of bathers."

The same ordinance specifies that the ban will be "temporary" and valid "until normal conditions are restored."

The coordinates of the section off-limits to swimmers have also been released:

  • START East Coord. 1'545'695 North Coord. 4'551'600
  • END Coord. East 1'545'309 North Coord 4'552'011
