Original consultation

We want your views on the identification Fontygary Bay, Rhoose, Vale of Glamorgan as a Designated Bathing Water.

Consultation description

The aim of this consultation is to seek views on our proposal to identify Fontygary Bay, Rhoose, Vale of Glamorgan as a bathing water under the Bathing Water Regulations 2013 for the 2026 bathing season.

Welsh Ministers are required to identify popular bathing waters in Wales, monitor their water quality and keep bathers well informed about water quality at these identified sites. In Wales the bathing season runs from 15 May to 30 September.

One of the requirements under the Regulations is for the Welsh Ministers to annually review and publish the list of identified bathing waters in Wales.
