Water Temperature in Zhejiang: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Original name of the region: 浙江

Zhejiang, located on the eastern coast of China along the East China Sea, experiences a subtropical monsoon climate that affects the temperature of its coastal waters. During the summer months, from June to August, water temperatures along Zhejiang’s coastline typically range from 25°C to 28°C. These warm waters create favorable conditions for swimming, sailing, and other water activities, making the region's beaches, such as those in Zhoushan and Ningbo, popular destinations for both locals and tourists.

In the winter months, from December to February, the sea temperature drops significantly, usually ranging from 8°C to 12°C. While colder than during the summer, these temperatures are still relatively mild compared to more northern coastal areas of China. The cooler waters discourage most recreational water activities, but the region remains attractive for other forms of tourism, such as scenic coastal walks and cultural exploration. Overall, Zhejiang’s coastline offers warm seas in the summer for aquatic activities, but the winter months bring cooler waters that limit such activities.
