𝗣𝗿𝗲́𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗱𝗲 𝗰𝘆𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲́𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 at Eaux Douces Beach

The Municipality of Crots urges beachgoers to exercise caution due to the presence of cyanobacteria in the waters at Eaux Douces Beach. Some cyanobacteria can produce toxins that are harmful to humans and especially to animals.

Consequently, Municipal Ordinance No. 54.2026 of August 21, 2026, temporarily prohibits swimming in the waters at Eaux Douces Beach until further notice.

We ask that you strictly comply with this ban and pay close attention to the signs posted on-site.
