Bathing bans and authorizations follow one another according to episodes of high heat, and not a leisure island in the Y


" It is a disaster.

“The atmosphere of the Boucles de Seine leisure center, in Moisson, near Mantes-la-Jolie (Yvelines), is not looking good.

Since Saturday, swimming, water games and all water activities are prohibited at the request of the Regional Health Agency (ARS) of Île-de-France.

All pedal boat, paddle, canoe rentals, catamaran, sailing and all water games are closed to the public.

Visitors can fall back on land activities such as golf, tree climbing, mountain biking, tennis because as much to say, the episode is likely to last.

“New analyzes are planned for this Wednesday and it takes three to four days before having the results, specifies the management of the leisure island.

Banned then reopened at the Etangs de Hollande

60 kilometers away, in the town of Bréviaires, near Rambouillet, Les Étangs de Hollande were able to reopen the bathing area on Friday.

But the management of the site prefers to remain cautious: “This authorization remains valid until the next control of the ARS.

That is to say during the week.

Swimming is also authorized this week on the leisure island of Mureaux-Verneuil.
