The Great Ratzeburger See has a size of around 1,260 hectares with a depth of up to 24.4 m and a shore length of 27.1 km.
The area of the bathing area under consideration covers an area of 59.7 km2, which consists of agricultural areas (49%), forest areas (11%) and sealed areas (14%). In this area, 92 stormwater discharges, one discharge from a domestic sewage treatment plant, two discharges from the two municipal sewage treatment plants, as well as the entries from the above were recorded. agricultural land has been identified as a potential source of pollution. There are two of the aforementioned rainwater discharges in the immediate vicinity of the bathing area. There are no known bacteriological effects on bathing water quality under normal weather and environmental conditions.
The bathing area was newly listed as an EU bathing area in 2022. A final assessment is therefore not yet available. Previous studies show excellent bathing water quality.
In spring and late summer, however, there is a risk that bathing dermatitis (skin irritation) due to cercariae infestation may occur after swimming. Such cases are particularly common after periods of good weather and rising water temperatures. A mass proliferation of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) occurred in 2018.
