EU bathing water continues to improve, says report

The latest data on EU bathing water quality has been released, showing 93% of sites meet the minimum standards.

However, the authors said storm-water run-off was still causing pollution problems in some areas.

Compiled by the European Environment Agency (EEA), the report lists data from more than 22,000 sites within the EU, Croatia and Switzerland.

An interactive website allows people to check the water quality of prospective holiday destinations.
