Control of water quality

In Tampere there are public beaches whose water is observed regularly during the swimming season.

Regional Environment Centres monitor the amount of algae

The Pirkanmaa Regional Environment Centre monitors the amount of algae, for instance, in lake Pyhäjärvi by the lakeshores of Pyynikki swimming beach and the Härmälä camping site, and in lake Näsijärvi by the lakeshores of the Rauhaniemi and Eliander swimming beaches. Lake Kaukajärvi’s rowing and canoe stadium and the western beach by Lake Tohloppi are also monitored.
