Good news for the people of Užice and all swimming fans – the water of the Đetinje River is officially declared safe for swimming and recreation! The Public Health Institute of Užice conducted all necessary tests and confirmed that the water belongs to the third class, which means a moderate ecological status. So, you can dive in without fear, but don’t forget to follow the beach rules and behave responsibly. The swimming season at the city beach started on July 10 and will be open daily from 10 AM to 7 PM. The public company Veliki Park has organized a security and rescue service to ensure visitors’ safety. But let’s be real – how many times have we heard that the water is “safe,” only to find out otherwise? Is it really that clean? Third class means the water isn’t crystal clear but moderately polluted. Is that enough for carefree swimming? Enjoy your summer, but with a pinch of caution. Got a funny or scary beach story? Share it! Maybe you’ll make us laugh or warn us about something we missed. Who knows, your story might just change the game.
